1 word. Bullsh!t.

I think Intel should charge more to EU customers so they pay their own fine.

Ummm, you do know that Kyle runs this shit, right? And he can tell the mods to go OGC. LOL

You do realise that EVERY publicly traded company must, BY LAW, seek a profit for it's investors. In fact, if a company fails to do this it can be sued by the shareholders. It is a fallacy (and an obvious sign of fanboyism) when people start assigning human qualities to a company itself...

Here's a coretemp screenie. Still doesn't get the model right, but the voltage is lower. Also this is a QX9750. It was a model that was NOT released to retail.

Ill try to remember to do that when I get home. I could get fired for that. They actually record the serial numbers...

Ronler Acres in Oregon. I am a fab monkey in D1D. We are ramping the 32nm products right now.

They won't give us sellable chips. They need to be engineering samples or like this, a non-commercial version. We'll probably get i7's next year.

Yeah I put the wrong photobucket link in and it took me a minute to figure it out. I thought you posted after I fixed it.

C'mon, what's wrong with a little bragging now and then? LOL Usually the chips are nothing special, mainly midrange stuff. But these were GREAT. Yes, I work for Intel, D1D specifically. I remember the first free chip I got, the P3 coppermine 833MHz. I thought it was the BOMB at the time...

I wasn't sure it was gonna work in my MB, but it seems to work OK. (Asus P5B-E) :D I'm not sure I want to OC it though. (And before you ask WTF DID YOU GET AN EXTREME AND NOT OC IT!!!1111ONE!! We get chips once a year for free from work...) I think I would want a newer MB for OC'ing.

Yeah, I guess I was being a little trollish by calling you fanboi. I just couldn't understand someone taking offence to me making fun of AMD's lawyers. Sniff, Sniff... 'Stupid Intel, they just want us dead.' Sniff, Sniff...

Dude, this isn't AMDzone. Your fanboyism is showing. LOLZ

Oh BOO HOO. AMD can't compete on merit, so they have to throw a tantrum screaming 'NO FAIR!'. Time to call the WAAAAAAAAMBULANCE. Seriously though, they HAD to see this coming. Problem is, they had no choice but to go through with the split. I guess it came down to 'Don't spin off fabs and...

That's pure FANBOY speak right there. I'll give you a hint, the whole point of a for-profit business is PROFIT. Believe me, AMD would do the exact same thing as Intel if it was in the position to do so. And believe it or not, the market sets Intel's and AMD's prices. The shareholders wouldn't...
