CPU usage at 98% Running 7x diablo3 and 7x Demonbuddy

Driving under speed limit does not guarantee accident free. But drive 150mil/hr will defiantly increase ur chance of getting killed.

Change Mac address and d3 resigtry is the same thing.

true!

Ill better be safe(r), than sorry! If hammer still comes after all precautions, ill drive 150mil/hr haha;-)

Only time will tell which way is better, or it depends really on luck:-D

Bad analogy. I use only going 5 mph over the speed limit lessens your chances of getting pulled over, but if you go 50 mph over the speed limit you're likely to get pulled over. Now the thing is we know speeding you will eventually get caught because cops are on the street. No one has any proof mac address or hardware id matters at all.

Not getting into this whole AMD/Intel debate but thats just not true and you're assuming the person wont OC the 8150 if hes gonna overclock the 930. You can overclock the 8150 to 5ghz with water cooling. I have both and my experience is the 8150 is better I just don't use it anymore because I don't play any games on my PC anymore but diablo so I can run 12 fine on my 930 without overclocking it since I do nothing else on the pc anyway if I start playing an MMO again ill move them to the 8150 or when diablos price goes down to 39.99 ill buy more to run both PCs. As far as the new generation I7s go is a different story they blow the 8150 away. However when building the bot PC i chose AMD for 1 reason my goal was to bot 15+ diablos as cheap as i can to maximize profits. I never understand the argument people make why spend more when something cheaper can do the same job its like buying a 50k$ SUV just to drive to work everyday.

You make no sense if you wanted the most bang for your buck you should have got a Phenom X6 since even that has more performance clock for clock than Bulldozer.

As far as water-cooling goes, <1% of this board knows how to watercool a CPU - not the AIO watercooling the real custom loops. 5 ghz is not an average OC, that's pushing Bulldozer to the max and I know that i7 9xx can clock up to 4.2 ghz when you push them but the fact still remains that i& processors get more performance per clock no matter how you spin it.

This is exactly why I said im not getting into the AMD intel debate. You bring up benchmarks without any Ocing you have non of the CPUs you talk about. I have all 3 the Phenom x6 does not out perform the 8150 in a real situation should I fraps me loading 15 D3s with the 8150 and having the Phenom x6 both Oced not able to keep up and load as many ?

I haven't owned AMD since Intel released the "core" architecture - I believe the first iteration was Conroe -not because I am a fan boy but because AMD has not been competitive at the high end since 2007.

According to you, benchmarks are lies and premier tech sites like Anandtech are wrong because you "owned" all the processors we are talking about.

Look, I don't care if you prefer AMD or if you bought the FX 8150 or whatever but when it comes to raw numbers Bulldozer will never outpace Nehalem simply because Nehalem doesn't have to reach sky high clocks to beat Bulldozer. To make matters worse when AMD released Bulldozer the biggest issue was the IPC(Instuctions Per Cycle) went down, that's why we have older processors easily outpacing the FX 8150 regardless of AMD hitting 5 ghz or 10 ghz.

When it comes to CPUs there is only one thing AMD know:


Which is really sad because they have a very competitive graphics division that is being pulled down with the rest of the company....

I'm not a fan of AMD, but if the point is to build a cheap bot machine to maximize profits you cannot argue that AMD can get the job done at a cheaper price. Benchmarks are just that benchmarks they are not real application test for what you're doing and nothing will tell you how something runs for what you wanna do until you do it yourself. For the record I prefer intel and if I were building a PC to bot on and play games on it would be intel, but what people do not understand is AMD doesn't wanna compete high end with intel they're after the middle of the market where the average PC user is because its a bigger more profitable market. Regarding the 8150 it was 1 step forward and 2 steps back, but here's a thought with technology maybe AMD has to take a step back in order to move forward.
