Intel is daring AMD to come up with an angle to steal pc enthusiast market right now.

And even though it accounts for probably 15% of the direct market; I know that I personally account for at least 30 people's computer choices that know nothing about hardware, and also think I enjoy IT work on my spare-time.

I'm kinda pissed that I have to take a new generation product and physically alter it in a way which presents risks of ruining it; just to get equal upside that last generation had. frick intel.

My haswell gets here next week

Now you can have custom color connectors on both sides of the cable! A whole new world

I don't doubt they come out with a block to delidding next generation aswell.

AMD only needs to come up with a mainstream gaming platform that can match Haswell clock for clock and overclock a little better (thereby outperforming it). They could even charge a few dollars more. Instead, AMD is trying to throw a $900 gimmick CPU up against the enthusiast/extreme series Intel.
