the suffering 1.1 nocd again

[diskmedel]

i really dont get it... why on earth would anyone WANT a pentium??
AMD is alot faster, and its cheaper!
try comparing a 2 GHz pentium with a 2 GHz amd, and let the benchmarks speak for themselves

pentium is fooling their customers with higher Hz, but what are those Hz worth when they are only half as good?

amd should do the same, they should make a processor with 2 GHz speed, and (like pentium does) put "4 GHz inside" on the label

thats because 2gh amd isnt the same as 2gh pentium, they have dif ways of measuring it, therefor a 2.1gh amd is called AMD2800+ xp to tell customers its the equivalent of a pentium 2.8

Before this turns into an AMD vs Intel flamewar, let me just point some things out :

1) compare only cpu's that cost about the same. This is the only real criterium but yes, Intel fails there too
2) The P4 Prescott is the hottest chip ever, there's quite a few systems where it runs so hot, it automatically throttles down to a lower speed to lower the temp. This technology was meant as an extra feature to protect people from burning up their cpus, but now people are running slower than they should and they don't even know it In older processors running this hot would cause a crash, but the p4's stay running (although a lot slower)
3) The Athlon64 on the other hand is the coolest chip I've seen in quite some time. With the DEFAULT heatsink it runs at about 45 degrees celsius, while the Prescott would hover near 70 (which incidentally is the temp where it starts to throttle down the speed). I've made a silent pc for a customer of mine, where the cpu fan regularly just STOPS completely (by design) when the cpu temp dips under 40 degrees celsius. Trust me, the Athlon64 chips are really good, and they all seem to be able to overclock atleast 400 Megahertz (depends on your motherboard).
4) Did I mention that the Athlon64 3000+ makes mincemeat of the Prescott 3Gigahertz ?

Luziel, yes i know

rince, even though we all know u r right, if a pentium-user sees your post he WILL argue with you ;D and arguing with a pentium-user is like arguing with a wall - pointless

had a p2 before... biggest misstake i ever made, buying a pentium

thank you for the interesting reading by the way

oh, allmost forgot... this thread is after all about "the suffering", so has anyone found a no-cd patch for version 1.1 yet?

[Luciel]

ahaha pentium got a bigger di.ck but amd KNOW HOW TO USE THEIRS AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

[vidard]

Yeah, i need the Suffering v1.1 (noCD) crack too...

[oRb-haw-]

ok i have a p4 i have no problems with it im sure that amd are better in a way just like pen are in a way, but doesnt only matter as long as ur comp plays the game, if it runs great if not then dam, i have never had any problems yet with my comp, no over heating or notting so stop buging about pens and amd and what ever lets just be happy we dont have mac comp then u would be f*****. plz give us all a break and give us a 1.1, also is it true that 10 wrks.

[diskmedel]

haha, im not sure who i look down on most, intel or mac users...
... but i guess that would be mac users

too bad the money-hungry owners of amiga burried it to get rich themselves, a friggin 12 MHz amiga kicked 60MHz pc butt EASY.. lol
try comparing ALL the games made on both amiga and pc... its like comparing a gameboy with an xbox.
ah well, im just bored, and that patch is no-where to be seen...
waited almost 2 months now for that friggin patch... seriously, how long could it take to make a tiny no-cd patch??
