Athlon 64 FX has been promised as the world’s most extreme processor for gaming. Did anybody already have the opportunity to test it?

You know, I've spent almost a month getting to know my 3500+... but it never occurred to me to find out how extreme it is. Weird, huh?

Mine chugs a two-liter of Mountain Dew every morning, then heli-skis off a 2000' cliff. Its branch prediction could be better, though.

My FX-59 was getting some shit from this punk ass Xeon next door, so it got out of its socket and went over there, ripped each pin off the Xeon one by one, tore open the hard drive casing, and shoved the chip inside. It then broke the entire drive (and the chip) in half and tossed it out the window.

My non-extreme 2800 is too busy reading a copy of "Martha Stewart Living" until it's time to pick up the kids.

Hey Sneftel, my 3200+ says Promit's FX-59 was insulting your CPU's mom. I wouldn't take that.

My AMD XP 2000 totally uppercut some laptop because it opened the CDROM drive!
And once when someone dropped a spoon it just went and overloaded the power grid and fried every PC in the whole city!
Your Athlon 64 FX might be EXTREME, but mine has REAL ULTIMATE POWER!

1) AMD64's are central processing units.
2) AMD64's render ALL the time.
3) The purpose of an AMD64 is to overclock and render the fuck out of everything.

You sure you don't mean your AMD64 duel core?

40 secs, and it isn't even as overclocked as it used to be. I have a new nForce4 SLI motherboard waiting to be finally used and I'm waiting till I order a dual-core P4.
