Computer stuffs at penang more expensive than KL?? I mean generally....I thought they are almost the same

Yeah.. playing games onli.. nothing else.

Previously was thinking of getting Q6600 instead of E6850... but lots of reviews in the internet and forumers here suggested me to take E6850 anytime over Q6600. So now I'm looking for E6850. Have been going around Penang for the last two days... and the only shops that sells E6550 and above is Skygate Technologies in Prangin Mall. And currently they don't have anything above E6550... one of the sales person told me the new stock will arrive in this coming Wednesday though. But he said to me E6850 won't be available...

i bought E6850 at RM9xx, while Q6600's price at RM999, way too much cheaper

E6850 at RM9xx seems promising...will the price drop more? i mean anytime soon?

There will be no cuts until the end of the yr. No point cutting price while AMD has nothing to offer better.

this is the last price cut for intel this year. thanks god. else, upgrading every few months lol. will getting a Q6600 system soon but not mine, belongs to a friend. at least can play a while with it

ive read somewhere that intel will cut price on SOME of the processor on the 2nd of sept..dont know which processor though. but yeah, the 22nd july can be considered the last price cut ( for all intel processor) in 2007

so, actually the processors' price at lowyat are already the cut price?

new price if they are taking new stock..most of it oledi lower their price like pc zone, cycom..otherwise they are still the same...

Maybe there will be price cuts when penryn come out. Then sure current 65nm processor will be slowly eliminated.

if upgrade to either q6600 or e6850, why 6850 will be better? the only thing i know is quadruple generates more heat, what's other reason?

From wat i read at reviews and benchmarks. The Q6600 does well in video decode and encoding . Almost all quad defeat the high FSB E6x50 series . But when cum into audio , E6x50 turn over and slightly win Quad Proc . As for the design software like 3DS and so on , the Quad win those high FSB at rendering.

Can anybody explain those to us
What included when audio encode ?

wahhhh wat is that............. ever heard before.... sorry... must be some professional job....

I just bought mine a E6750 @ RM675 at JB

From what I read a review last time :
in terms of 3D rendering, video encoding, Q6600 will be better ;
in terms of gaming, E6850 will perform better than Q6600.

Yes, Q6600 will generates more heat than E6850, reason? 4 core vs 2 core,what do u say?

Quad would definately better for programs that require much CPU computation... But for gaming, its wont be utilized fully.

So when gaming , the result mostly effect by FSB not cores ?

since most game cannot utilise the quad core to its advantage, the quad core operates similarly like the dual core i guess...so of course the higher clocked dual core e6x50 would outperform the quads theoritically.

Just get Q6600 then oc. Get ready for the future, developers are working to utilise multi-core system architecture.

while waiting for future application that support quad core, esp games, we'll change to many processors already
