Hey cmdrjay are you a moderator now???....we arent being "offensive" or belligerent we are merely having a healthy debate....if you dont like it go read another thread....or at least respond to the thread instead of being Mr.Policeman. Frankly your no better than the person who you quoted.
BTW...I may seem a bit angry, but I dont appreciate 3 star members reminding me of rules, I would rather hear it from a moderator.
Actually it doesn't matter how many stars a member has, if the person knows the forums rules and does post accordingly even a 1 star member can comment. Also hearing it from a mod wouldn't be THAT good, they have better things to do and I think, and also believe most people will agree that cmdrjay's post was in place. Offensive language to anyone in the forums is strictly forbidden and I've seen many members getting banned.
I like hanging out in the forums not only coz its full of useful info, but also because the people here are nice and friendly, and I don't see flames all over the place as I've seen in other forums.
I don't think that this thread should be converted into a flame war or whatever. just posting my own opinion about this.
Sorry for the short thread kidnapping
I'd, although it hurts to say, would go for and Intel system if I had an unlimited budget, but if the friend still wants an AMD then I won't argue with him too much, its his own choice, and you can't really go wrong by going with either company. if you go Intel (best they have) you end up spending an arm and a leg, but getting the fastest. by going AMD you save a bunch of cash, although you don't get the FASTEST there is I still believe a high end AMD system will suit his needs pretty well. Maybe even leave some money to get some mod or something cool for his new car.
