I went with my Intel build and I am not looking back.
I have built 6ish Intel systems, and with ALL of them I have never had to RMA or send back a single part. When I built my first AMD system, I had to RMA the Processor the DAY I got it, not to mention it ran hot as hell even with a Big Typhoon heatsink. I will, and will continue, to say a quick f*ck YOU to AMD as long as I live. They suck in the server market and f*cked me in the consumer market, so I have no intention on purchasing any of there products in the near future. I saved money too, thanks American Express! |
