KamiQuazi Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 I'm guessing the model is ClawHammer or San Diego... and E5 stepping? I don't think that is even out there yet...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Athlon_64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KamiQuazi Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Anyone correct me if im wrong but, i don't think there is a E5 revision of the AMD 64s?http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16819103539Is this the one u bought?But like i said earlier... I haven't heard anything about the E5 revision... I'll keep looking for anything on a E5 revision, but it doesn't look good 2 me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CPU-Stepping is what he wants to know about... but i have never heard of a E5 revision and at that i don't think AMD would still call the revision San Diego due to that it may cause confusion 4 people...

Porn Loader Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 (edited) u have 2 x64bit processors? y? or do u just like upgrading all the time?One more thing Porn Loader, have u heard about a E5 revision in the CPU-Stepping?yea, bought my clawhammer 3200 at release (nov 03), now im running a 4000+, REALLY wanted one of the toledo cores, but the 4400 wasnt enough of a bump in speed (imo), and the 4800 was 2x the cost of my 4000+. starting to regret it tho, nvidia is taliking about utilizing the dual cores in there drivers...as for upgrading to often.. the 3200 cost me ~$425 at release, the prior 6-8 months i went thru about 6 2500 bartons plus at least 5 mobos. add that up and the $425 i paid for 18months i used the 3200 look nice and cheap. rip thanks for the info on the turion/mobiles, havent looked at amd for mobiles at all yet...

KamiQuazi Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 how did u go thru 6 2500+ bartons? let me guess u overclocked and fried them along with the mobos... lol... as for the 4000+ i would have just bought a dual-core... a little more expensive but it would have been better in the long run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porn Loader Posted August 7, 2005 Share Posted August 7, 2005 didn't fry any of them, just wanted one that would clock higher than 2400mhz. as for the x2's i was seriously leaning towards that route.. but considering that i was on a 2ghz 1meg L2 chip, and that i'd have to drop $700+ for a x2 4400 that was at 2.2 just wasnt worth the $$ for the 200mhz bump for performance now. my rig gets used 95% for gaming, the rest is just surfing porn . now in a year+ when multithreaded games come out, i'll throw this 4000 in my server and buy a x2 (5400+ 2.8ghz, 1meg L2? ). the only other thing that could push that date closer would be a good size performance jump from nvidias drivers taking advantage of dual core.
