Bruce and thread - AMD X2 4,400 v. AMD FX 55. Anyone got a view?
Dear Bruce and thread,
The FX 53 processor seems to have been discontinued. I have been advised by local electronics suppliers that the FX 55 $999 and the FX 57 $1,150 are available.
They are said to be "gaming" processors. There is also the AMD X 2 series and the 4,800 is $1,149, the 4,400 is $659.
Anyone know how these compare?
Also anyone got a view on what is the best motherboard for these chips?
L
Dear Bruce,
OK a year later and I'm now at the point of going out to get the bits. Locally no-one seems to sell the FX-53 but they do have the FX-55 939 pins.
I guess the only one in this class in the fx-53 but I thought That I'd ask just in case there have been some changes.
Thanks,
L
ZH - this is a great thread but the language in some of the recent posts will degrade it. You should not allow this kind of bad language on your thread.

ZH - All bets off- Samsung earnings out and they are massive and good view of 1H 06...
L
zh - big semi out tonight...Samsung...this should be intersting. My guess is that they will be less than expected but have some great things to say about the next qtr and 06. Net result my guess is they tank and drag the semis with them tomorrow.
And my guess is that a/h tanking is going to become a regular evening passtime this season.
L
sk - Its the big find and hedgie buyers that make things go up. These guys are clearly not buying and probably won't till they have to hoping to pick up stock cheap over the next few weeks.
It'll be interesting to see how the a/h collpases start trigering in as the earnings season gets into full swing. I wonder of any of them will get a pop....
L
ZH - Not so sure. Just imagine A/H on INTC earnings night. With this kind of sentiment it will need a mircal of biblical proportions to raise the stock and it if doesn't raise my guess is it drops and the same for dozens of tech biggies that are doing just fine in terms of revenues and earnings but will run up a little jsut before their earnings and then out to the woodshed as soon as the earnings are announced and then a few little whip lashes into the confernce call and then a long slow drop till the fund managers decide to start buying again as it will affect year end bonuses and so some time before Dec 31 I guess a little rally...my guess..
So in short my guess is that your original prediction of 1,950 is going to be very close.
Best,
L
ZH - Another great call. I recall you predicting 1,950 in October and a few more dayslike this and it's there. Good reading of the sentiment now which didn't look anything lke this when you predicted it.
L
How do you know?
October - right after qtr end and big holders earning some bucks by shortng against their positions or loan the stock to shorts.
some time to earnings...doldrums so far as news is concerned.Waiting for earnings..
Scare some into selling make some bucks. Maybe a downgrade or two in the process to scare some more.
Seems to me Q is usually one of the last to benefit from a rally in the market.
Thats my guess.
L
ZH - that post has no business being put on your site. People who do not know of Mr Benn might not know that he has been railing against the United States for decades.
I did not want to repsond to this becuase it increases interest in the post but I posted in case anyone toook these views as being an unbiased view.

ZH - the Oil Bubble..how much hedgie spec do you think is in the price? $10..$20 $30?
L
Is this the biggest bubble in history...oil at $65 Brl? The Russian hedgies must have at least $20 a brl of spec in this...what a ride...
Its interest putting up day and it always drops as soon as the anoouncment is made even though it was up in the morning. Done it several times on these days.

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+, 2.4 GHz (ADA4800CDBOX)
BT - what is this all about and how would it change the way my PC responds?
There seems to be a cheaper one for about $650. I do not understand the spped comparisons that these AMD chips are to Intel chips?
Best,

MB?
Bruce- Well I didn't do anything yet but I'm sort of getting the urge for a summer upgrade! How much could I get for a budget of about say $1,100 give or take?

REaction to the underwhelming prospect of TV on handsets. If instead handsets had 8Gb compact flash then w-cdma handsets could download music and be used as an i-pod ( sorry about the use of the generic term).
Tied up to an online song database from the major music companies it might have made 3G relevant to young people.
Might have go the music industry really excited too. As it is the daily drop is the welcome being given to the new leadership by the market.
Still who knows maybe they will come out with some fabulous figures and explain how they are going to get to the wcdma sales for cal 06. That should be interesting.
L
I'm herein Beijing now. I have seen just the one store that had cdma20001x in it and as I said in my post on SI that was right at the back of the store effectively out of sight of the street. Take a look at my detailed post on the qcom thread from Monday.
I haven't seen any internet ads but then I don't speak Manadarin and so I'm not getting an overall picture.
There is the 5th or 6th Annual 3G convention here this week. Goodness know what they are going on about since so far as I know China is the only major economy not to have 3G in operation today.
As for the time scale you mention this is China we are talking about and things which take a month in other countries take a few days here so they have plenty of time till 2008.
Best,
L
Don't hold your breath. They have until the opening of the Olympic Games in the summer of 2008 to switch on their 3G networks and they will take as much of that time as they can in order to provide all possible delay to allow the completion of teh TD-SCDMA system.
In addition to that they will only install whatevere system they do in certain towns where there is "demand". Even then I wonder what %age of current mobile users will bother to shell out the extra cash for the expensive handsets and the increased monthly subscription. My guess..25% or less.
best,
L
Thats a bit of an upward surprise!!! Semis doing better then was thought oh oh
What a lot of negative coment and aritcles all at the same time...coincidence?
L
BM - Russians are getting all the investment they need. It is just coming to the people they want it to. So whats different from anywhere elese?
L
ogm - next leg down today? more or less than 40pts down on the naz?
L
They're just good friends.
o the ch\arts - ever -say anything positive?
L
ZH - -100D/-30N? Is this slowly slowly it winds its way there. Like watching a slow motion train wreck.
L
ZH - an up day followed by a down day of 30pts or so on the NAZ and 100 pts or so down on the Dow. Seems to be a pattern.
L
I thought traders were supposed to like volatility.
L
I guess they did in March 2000 as well..there is most times a buyer<g>
But it's the prinicpal of adding to positions, of increasing exposure, of confidence in the investment...all those ephemoral things that go into making a rising market as opposed to one that goes up one day but down more the next.
L
Stow - why should an insititution buy anything till the end of October. Long hot bumpy summer to get through and its just starting.
L
Plop......options opening to give a little boost to the dump?
On your marks, get set, plop. Where's Softie?
