freeza Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 its low end because its low end....price doesnt have THAT much to do with it....the company in question does sony isnt a low end company regardless of how low the price is on their stuff but im pretty sure audiovox is :D its the companies reputation that determins the quality of its products that and what they tell you themselves everybody knows that the duron and celeron are low end low costing processors..they were designed to be that way and im sure if you look at the most expensive computer of any oem vendor it will be an intel system....thats just because thats the way it is now if you go with companies like emachines or any company advertising their system for $599 and lower of course they will bundle it with crappy hardware.

Duron and Celeron are low-end because they lack processing power, you were saying Athlon's were low-end just going by the fact that the Athlon systems were much cheaper. And i was referring to a Dell not some sh*t like eMachines. Mesh are a decent company who use quality components with their stuff. i was well impressed when a mate told me the system he was getting and the price and i was like "yeh i bet its got a sh*tty motherb.....oh its got Asus, nice." :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faction Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 If your buying from dell or compaq, it wouldnt even matter if its an ASUS< because they screw it up so much, my brothers compaq's BIOS.. it isnt even a BIOS.. its like "Compaq Utility", and there is NOTHING from normal BIOS there,just crap. You can imagine how hard it was to get an HD working with the thing.. No auto detect and stuff.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course if you look at an OEM vendor their most expensive system would be an Intel, because Intel processors run 2-3 times as much as AMD processors. I really fail to see your point on that one.

freeza Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 AMD is better but yet not even half the people that own computers have one... thats the point ;) thats all folks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMD is better heheh, so who cares if other people are using a worse processor :) hehehehhehee. But this is true.. for a very long time, brand name computers [crap] only sold Pentium processors with there computers, now companies are seeing that AMD's are better, hence the reason most servers sold by dell are AMD, and why compaq now uses Athlon XP's..

syscrash2k Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 freeza, the only reason more people dont own amd's is because most of the world r n00bs and buy from crappy companies. I say intel is for non-power users and amd is for power users. Most people in my class dont even know what AMD is. One of my friends didnt know what amd was until i checked his pc and it turned out he had an AMD processor. AND he thought he had a pentium. So there. AMD isnt popular in the n00b market.

PM5K Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 I gotta hand it to Intel, they make an inferior product, charge two to three times more and sell their product to idiots who don't know any better. Now that's a sound business plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faction Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 to narrow it down even more.. the truth of the matter is 75% of people with computers DONT CARE what processor they have, as long as they can go chat with there AOL buddies, they could care less :ermm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMDTBurnt Posted April 5, 2002 Share Posted April 5, 2002 Man you all, I have all the AMD processors (except for the AthlonXP/MP and the K5) I have a 233 K6 (which suxs) a K6-2 500 (kinda OKish, didn't like the slowmo L2 cache) the 700 MHz Duron (not bad), 1 GHz Athlon (Stupid POS), and 1.33 GHz Athlon (Broke in 3 months), and the 1.4 GHz Athlon (gave it to my uncle because stupid mobo and gfx broke and couldn't afford new ones. In fact besides this P3 laptop, I don't have any Intel processors. But I am AMAZED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This little P3 packs so much power!
