HEXUS.reviews :: WORLD EXCLUSIVE! INTEL CONROE BENCHMARKED

[Bob Crabtree]

I have it on good authority - and I'll probably have to kill David if he's wrong - that the Conroe CPUs are going to massively undersell the FX-62.

[kempez]

Massivly undersell? Or massivly undercut?

[Bob Crabtree]

Oh and here are three further versions of keta's posting:

This one has no vowels:

Finally, we have the version I'm leaning towards. This has no letters at all and no spaces and, again, it's not much different, in terms of readability than the original:

,,,??,:|......,:|..,,44?,':|,,, 3.2, 3.2, 888

I lean towards this last version, though, because it's easy to take in at a glance and saves a bit of bandwidth.

Massivly undersell? Or massivly undercut?

To me they both mean the same thing but - just in case there is any doubt - what I mean is that it will be far cheaper than FX-62.

Or so I understand.

[keta]

lol bob and yes ur right they will be much cheaper

conroe E6600 - $319US
conroe E6700 - $530US

amd fx62 - $1200US

both those processors beat fx62 , now if that aint a bargain i donno wat is :|

ohhh btw enough spaces for u ? rofl...

[kempez]

Cheers for the clarification. I thought about it and yes they do mean the same thing but undercutting sounds far moe intuitive to me..ahhh....Linguistics ey?

Those procs are a great price. I expect I'll be picking up a mid-rangeish one and OC'ing th nuts off it

@keta - wow I can read your post!

[GoD2.0]

lol bob and yes ur right they will be much cheaper

conroe E6600 - $319US
conroe E6700 - $530US

amd fx62 - $1200US

ohhh btw enough spaces for u ? rofl...

Impossibile :\ How, if the benchmarks are correct, the conroes will be even faster than intel extreme edition... another 1000$ processor... and I don't know, it would be like hitting yourself in the balls, selling two pdoucts that are of the same quality, one being twice as cheap Either those aren't the prices for conroe or this benchmark is bogus

[kalniel]

Or there's an extreme edition of the conroe as well, which is even faster.

Last gen products will either drop in price or just not be made any more.

[keta]

god2.0 its not imposible look at this.

E6300 (1.86GHz), $183
E6400 (2.13GHz), $224
E6600 (2.4GHz), $316
E6700 (2.67GHz), $530
E6800 (2.93GHz), $999

they still have the 1000 dollar processor , i just dont like to mention it cuse i mean ,
seriously when u can get a processor that beats a fx62 for 316 ?

why mention the expensive ones im buying the 2.4 ghz and overclocking it to 2.997 by uppin the fsb to 1333

thats only a small overclock for conroes. soo yes not imposible just there midrange parts beating a high end part , notice the conroe spanks fx62 ? thats why it spanks it cuse its so much cheaper and still beats it.

[kempez]

And notice that rumours are that the launch has been put back until September

Time to save I spose

[Bob Crabtree]

lol bob and yes ur right they will be much cheaper

conroe E6600 - $319US

keta,

I thank you:

* For the info
* For the easier-to-read posting
* And for taking my messing about in the right spirit

Bob

[schmunk]

keta - thank you, much more legible.

learn wat a commer is for , i dont need to put a paragraph instead of a commer.

[MD]

Keta, while others may just joke with you about your posts I will now take the official line,

Make them legible or they will have to go, we do not allow writing such as this as it is just not good for discussion boards.

Thanks

Matt.

p.s. please edit the post above to be legible.

[keta]

wow now that i a fix that extactly how u want it with lots of paragraphs

its harder to read then before lol.

like seriously wat do we do here right a points list or a right a damn post :|
