I've been refraining from saying this but...
You're a complete idiot.
First off: The title says "Pentium D vs Athlon 64 X2". Not "Pentium D vs Athlon 64 X2 4800+", ok? So, that's a WIDE range of processors!
Second: The 955xe IS a Pentium D processor!
Not only that, Zaki once said in this same thread, "if there is a presler core to outdo the athlon x2 4800, its the 955 XE, the 950 doesnt compare,"
So, WHY in the world would you compare a weak processor to the 4800+ and then compare prices? Obviously it would be cheaper because it doesn't perform as well as the 4800+...
This is not the only time you posted in threads and made yourself look stupid. Do yourself a favor. If you don't know about a certain topic, don't discuss it. Plain and simple.
I'm the idiot? You're the one consistently making useless posts and intentionally trying to start arguements, infact, several members may even back me up on this.
And besides, maybe I messed up on the X2 4800+ in the title of the thread, but with the information I provided on the second post, most people have generally been discussing off of that information. But even then, the Pentium D is an excellent processor, and does beat some of the X2 series, as I stated back in the other thread, you know, the one you continually tried to make arguements in?
A weak processor? You're a damn fool. The Pentium D is a very powerful CPU. It has dual cores, it has a high processing speed, it has a high L2 cache? What exactly makes it, "weak?" Or is that just another one of your posts where you ramble on about things and don't really ever seem to suport it with facts? And if you need information to back up what I'm saying, look at my first post on this thread!
And yes, of course it's cheaper, it's not the XE version, which I clearly said in the previous post. But, liek you seem to do time and time again, fail to see that.
And no, I will not stop discussing a topic simply because a jackass liek yourself says so. I know a fairly decent amount about ocmputers, because they are my hobby. You're just a kid who thinks they know everything about somethign then goes on rambling about it and trying to start arguements about it. This thread was once peaceful, until you showed up. This is, at least form my count, the third thread you have ruined due to your lack of self-control.
And don't even bother replying back with another one of your, "When a person tends to insult someone it shows that they're lossing the arguement," posts. It won't work this time around. I've posted information to back my claims up. This time, it's about you and what you do in this fourm. You constantly try to start useless arguements and you constantly try to insult people when you yourself don't know everythign about that specific topic.
So why don't you do us all a favor and leave the forum. I guarntee you no one will miss you.
