and if amd offered similar certs i'd do it

but they don't have a pin

wait tho

you said you're buying a 470

you're not a real intel + nvidia shill at all!!

i would reccommend a mobile intel chip over an amd mobile chip

i mostly sell laptops

"Don't break the status quo, there might be issues :^)"

AMD hasn't updated their processors in years as far as I know

amd mobile chips are power hungry and perform below their intel equals

exactly

thanks to Intel jewing them hard at every time

turn*

i'm gonna tell people to get the newer, faster chip for the same price

reading that history is insane

how Intel fucked their competition

https://np.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/3s5r4d/is_nvidia_sabotaging_performance_for_no_visual/cwukpuc

this is the most amazing story

i'll have to read that after work

i lowkey need to go now :/

Can you guess why? Because Intel paid PC manufacturers out of its own pocket for years to not buy AMD's chips. Although they were faster, manufacturers went with the bribe because the amount they made from that outweighed the amount they get from happy customers buying their powerful computers. And thus, the industry began to stagnate a bit with CPUs not really moving forward as quickly. They also attacked all existing AMD chips by sabotaging their compiler, making it intentionally run slower on all existing and future AMD chips. Not just temporarily, but permanently; all versions of software created with that version of the compiler will forever run worse on AMD chips, even in 2020 (and yes, some benchmark tools infected with it are still used today!).

Ugh

That reminds me of there once was a man

the last AMD chip I had was a 1090T and I liked it

Where people would try to stop technology from evolving

http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103849 for whatever reason this was in a 2011 prebuilt

>prebuilt
you wot

not had a prebuilt for years now

this was before I was /g/

2011 was 5 years ago

Me neither actually

i went to tiger direct and gave them my budget

Last pre-built I had was like 3 years ago

3 to 4

i was an ape when i built my pc, by all rights it shouldn't work but it does

>had a prebuild in 2011
>that means he only recently moved to building his own

yeah I bent some pins on the USB thing

and had to straighten them with plyers

SAME

usb 3 header is awful

like the cable are so ridgid and they fall out and the pins bend so easily

usb3 is pretty useless tbh

How long have you been /g/ Storm?

I was on /g/ right as I got the prebuilt

then I realised that I goofed

but it was too late

was it only of those awful laptop board crammed in a desktop things?

with all the things soldered down

nope

a friend asked me to upgrade his PC and it was basically a gutted laptop shoved in a tiny case

full atx, multiple pcie slots, expandable ram, the works

nothing I could do

it wasn't a bad buy, but the PSU was awful

only thing it would support is a low profile gpu

so get a lp 750ti

i think they make them

his psu was 220watts

o

nvm

and proprietary

so I couldn't replace it

couldn't find a similar shape anywhere

well i gtg

Cya

sucks that computers are bad

Make your goy superiors proud

do you tell your customers that? :^)

I've never sold an Acer if that counts

"the prebuilt you sold us is garbage"
"lowkey, all computers are bad :^)"

that's something I'd do actually

once I accidentially said "fam u bought an acer for $400 u goofed"

computers havent actually been getting better since 2004

when it broke

Lmao storm

my monitor is acer

I'd argue 2008

q6600 was last "good one"

before the jewing got too real

right after they fucked AMD for life

what a surprise

reee

bye

Bye

i want to be a part of this convo but real life

As I said make your goy superiors proud

meet that sales goal

👌

👌🏿 not using the superior emoji

"you bought last year's intel processor? ARE YOU INSANE?! THE NEW ONE IS 1000% BETTER"

in reality 2% boost kek

im glad i didnt fall for the wait for pascal meme

I hate how all the tech companies always try to overstate the boost of all their products

it inevitably comes out the performance boost is next to nothing

like when nvidia said their mobile 980 matches the desktop one

and it was like 75% off

PR teams just do what will be received well, the fault is on normies for buying it

Yeah I'm sure we've all been jewed by PR at some point

buying chink shit is the only real red pill

I loved that news today of the chinks saying the iPhone ripped off one of their phones

and banned it
