I used to be an Intel fan until I started lanning with my friends and found I was getting horrible performance in CSS with my Intel system compared to their AMD systems.

To be honestly, I know my shit when it comes to maximizing the performance of desktop system, I am super anal about what I install on my system or what drivers and more; I pretty much format C: every month.

Let me beginning by tell you that I own 5 P4 processors (2.8c, 3.0c, 3.0e, 3.2 , 2.53). Are they good at multitasking? YES; Are they good at running applications efficiently? YES; Are they good at running games? HELL NO!.

P4 System
Abit IC7-MAX3
P4 3.0e E0 Stepping @ 3.75ghz
1 gig OCZ DDR-550, 1:1, D-Channel
X800-XT 256mb
2x160 SATA Raid 0
Watered CPU, GPU and Chipset

AMD system
Abit AV8
AMD 64 3500+ Venice @ 2.7ghz
1 gig Corsair DDR400, 5:6, 2-2-2-5 , D-Channel
X800-XT 256mb
2x160 SATA Raid 0
Water cooled CPU and GPU

CSS Time-demo Test:

Before dissembling my P4 system and replacing it with my AMD system I ran a CSS timedemo I made at the lowest settings possible at 1024 * 1280. After assembling my new AMD system and installing windows ext ext.. I ran the same timedemo with the highest settings possible.

You can go ahead and run this demo on your own system. You can down it here…
Demo Link
Just place this file in your *user*\counter-strike source\cstrike and open CSS and type “timedemo test” (note the people accusing me of hacking)


P4 CSS Demo Score:
Lowest Settings Possible @ 1024 * 1280
7435 frames 179.748 seconds 41.36 fps 2.573 fps variability
SS

AMD CSS Demo Score:
Everything high, 2x AA, 8x AF, no V-Sync @ 1024 * 1280
7435 frames 119.581 seconds 63.36 fps 5.100 fps variability

Clearly my AMD system runs CSS much better than my Intel system. 23 more fps with much higher settings! Now, don’t tell me I didn’t use the right console command(s) to configure my P4 System CSS settings. Believe me, I gave my P4 System every chance to perform well and it straight out failed.

Other Games:

Well I didn’t test other games as much but let me assure you all the other games I have played (Doom3, GTA, Far-Cry ext) on my AMD system perform much better than my P4 system.

Conclusion:

I don’t know how people play games like CSS on Intel systems. I honestly don’t think Intel cares about gamers in the first place. Intel does a great job selling on the OEM market to Dell and now.. cough! MAC; lets face it these are the only customers Intel cares about, not gamers. So don’t tell me that future Intel processors are going to kick-ass when it comes to games because you know AMD is going to be right there with something 10 time better; they like care about us gamers.

If you have any questions or want me to run any more tests don't be afraid to ask. PLEASE! before you rant on how your intel system performs well on games PLEASE RUN MY DEMO ON YOUR SYSTEM AND POST: 1) YOUR SCORE 2) SYSTEM SPECS 3)CSS DISPLAY SETTINGS. thanks

<3 my AMD system

Mod Edit: Sincere congrats on your new rig, but this thread is essentially flame bait
 
This topic appears on every forum atleast twice a week, and has little to do with actual performance between the two, but is instead mostly about fandweebism and E-Penis.

AMD may give more FPS, but as long as the game runs at a smooth, playable frame rate, I really couldn't be bothered to give a rat's behind about getting 28378839285 frames per second.

You can have a superb gaming experience with an Intel rig just as you can with an AMD rig.

I highly doubt that if all the AMD processors and motherboards were to dissapear from the face of the earth tomorrow that all the AMD gamers would commit ritual suicide in front of their workstations.

Hmm my intel system wasn't even playable or smooth in CSS, for me at least.
 
Lol like a intel chip cant run css fine hahaha you kidding ? I own both intel and amd systems and trust me if you say amd owns intel cuz it gets 21 more fps out of almost 200 then your well I will be nice ummm how can I say this uggg cant say it ( moron ). Simple fact is that yes most games amd has a 5% better avg fps and in almost any other task for computers the intel chip is superior. They both make good chips, too bad most humans dont make good kids.
 
again :rolleyes: Intel is not playable for me, 40fps is not playable 60fps is.... n00bs!

BTW thats 20 more fps on average... AVERAGE!, thats a huge difference. When I rushed out of Double Door on Aztec as a T, I was dropping down to 25fps, which is not playable at all! Instead I never go below 50 fps when I rush out of Double Door when using my AMD system. All these noobs that are used to playing on consoles with fixed fps and lows rezes need to get out.

Then perhaps it's just you and not the processor.

So he upgraded to new CPU and that helped change who he is? ok... :rolleyes:

I don't recall that I ever said that, so please don't put words in my mouth.

He said that it's not good enough "for him". His preferences don't encompass the entire world. You can tell just by browsing these forums that there are plenty of people using Intel rigs for gaming that are just as content as their AMD-using counterparts, therefore the issue is with him, or rather with personal preference, as his experiences don't mean that Intel sucks for gaming.
 
My stock 570J plays every game just as well as my 3000+'s, 3200+, 2900+, and my friends overclocked 2800+'s and 3000+'s...
 
I'm assuming your talking about AthlonXP and not Athlon64...In that case I would agree, as it should.

No, what I listed were A64's...

Run my demo Intel users!

What the fuck for?

You have an AMD, we have Intels, and we're just as content as you are.

We aren't going to go out of our way trying to find things wrong with our setups when we're happy with them just so we can say "OMG, I get 5 less FPS than the AMD guy, Intel suxors. LOLLLOLOLLL!"

5 fps is a big difference, consider 30fps versus 35fps.
