Be kinda strange though that if AMD made gains due to this, it wasnt because of some wonder part they built, but intel shooting themself in the foot. Then again, us gamers are nothing to them, it's all OEM orders and the like that dictate the market rather than fucking crysis.ghettoperson wrote:
Fuck LGA1160 then. How many times more expensive is LGA1366 going to be? Why can't they just keep it all to one socket, and make cheaper un-OCable chips?
Thinking about it though, that'd make sense with two sockets. That way, they can force mobo manufacturers to make mobos for LGA1160 that have a fixed FSB.If they start making some decent chips that OC well, Intel can get fucked.Nessie09 wrote:

While Intel is stripping down overclocking features, AMD is working to enhance the potential of its processors, and rumor has it that the upcoming Deneb processors will be extremely friendly to the users who plan to squeeze extra performance.
