That's what I was thinking. Time to start pestering the crap outta them for what EXACTLY every letter and digit means on an OPN. Straight from the horses mouth.

[felinusz]

*EXACTLY*. that is why I'm joining - hopefully they will give us some "inside" information and clear some thigns up a bit. Although I can also see it being completely useless if they don't give out "useful" information.

[L337 M33P]

I'm waiting to see if they will tell us what the four alpha characters at the end of the stepping are :cool:

That's what I was thinking too... But I don't really think so anymore. The info would be out allready if they'd want it to be out.

[deathstar13]

well we can hope but its gonna be hard getting answers like that.
like id like to know is there anyway to get an opteron unlocked? i doubt they say one way or another.

but this also gives a chance to have our wants/needs heard!
ive seen this work on the abit forums.hopefully we get lucky here.

[Maxvla]

Just registered... Rule number 11 kind of sounds funny:

if they aren't going to allow any mention of intel products in any way i will not be visiting their site again.

sure. the forums are paid for and run by a particular company.. but how can you have active discussion when you can't talk about what you are supposed to compare your product with??

[I.M.O.G.]

That's what I thought. The rule allows the moderators a WHOLE lot of discretion on what they want to delete or edit.

Just surfing through, I've seen a few posts regarding intel that haven't been deleted. Hopefully they just made that rule to give them a lot of freedom in regards to intel posts, but they won't really use it unless it gets out of hand. I'll stick around there and if they do enforce that rule strictly, I'm out.

This should be interesting, some good info may come out of this though so I'll hang around yet ANOTHER forum ;) I think this makes 8 or 9 I'm regularly active in. In addition to 2-3 I'm a regular post ***** in :D

EDIT: Maybe I should've said "Garden tool"?

[USAPGAPRO]

Just signed up too.

[UberBlue]

Wow... There mods leave something to be desired. Like maybee existant, they're nowhere to be found. They're probbably some nooby AMD employees who got stuck with it.

Rule #11 Seems to me to be a good way to squash flame wars by having it.


And it's pretty cool to see you guys over there. It's like "Hey, I know him.".

[Fallen Phoenix]

How long has it been up? Since your first post UberBlue? Give it some time, it'll grow ;)

[Rottys-R-Us]

I tried posting answers in the trouble shooting section but feel flamed sense i am interested in performance and such. And the response back was like were talking to different languages.LOL ok value ram all the way and they wonder why they have problems.

Member #1462 here....

I'm also curious what the 4 letters on the end of the stepping mean....

[dropadrop]
