Don't read posts if you know your sorry ass isn't going to care about it in the end. Why don't you run to bed like a good boy and stop complaining.

Quoted so you won't edit it out later. You're probably going to be banned for being a trolling idiot. :p

Actually, the only time I edit my posts is when I have grammatical errors.

Also, I am an idiot, though not a trolling one.

I find that people hating me is funny. Does that make me trolling?

Oh.

Actually, I had no idea what trolling meant.

Well, I'm not really sure what it means but it's fun to say.

He wasn't talking about a P4 Extreme Edition, which is what would compare to the FX series that AMD has. He was, however, talking about just the regular P4 3.0e .

no the difference between the regular p4 3.0 and the p4 3.0e is that the p4 3.0 just has 512k of L2 cache the 3.0e has 1mg or L2 cache. and i don't have the money to buy a new mobo, ram, and processor so i can't go amd right now and the 3.0e beat out the fx-55 in several benchmark tests.

HORSE SHIT. Don't you read MaximumPC and Toms Hardware? By several, you mean none. The P4 3.8EE only beat it out in two tests, it would be impossible for a 3.0 to do the same.
