I been reading that AMD is going downhill, too bad because AMD does provide more CPU bang for the buck.
I went to Fry’s hoping to pick up a 4 core Athlon II, I did, got the last X4 640, I think I will have to order the next two because Fry’s may not have something compatible.
Rarely does one need a 4 core CPU. But I have been playing with ffmpeg and found a need for some serious CPU cycles. I can’t afford a new Mobo with a Core i7, but I did have a spare Mobo with everything BUT the CPU and CPU Fan.
Anwyay as I post I am compiling FFMPEG on it, hoping something that took half an hour will take less than 20 minutes.
Family visited me at work today, went home with them before I could hit the gym.
Just gonna do some pushups and situps.
