Good Points

AMD has gotten a lot damn faster but with that there are problems.


Bad Points

Compatibility with the n_force blows compared to an intel with geforce 4.

    I didn't get trouble while using athlon XP processor like you said. Maybe, you have to define your problems clearly before made a statement.

    You are wrong and I think you should learn much more about computer.

    I use xp-2000 with a GIGAByte motherB with a gForce AGP and I don't see any problem! CONTENT! Is the word man, re-evaluate your problem! It might be yuor motherboard or some other parts or another software driver!

    I have been a system builder for over 11 years now and AMD is what I mainly sell over 88% of my customers say NO ! INTEL and Yes to AMD !! I think you need to check your system before saying AMD is not a Quality Product

    You are comparing geforce 4 (which is a video card) and N-force (which is a chipset).Oh by the way... my AMD XP1900+ is faster than my 48x CDRW!!!!

    I like the last comment! but to be serious I use both AMD and Intel machines and there is little difference in reliability but with AMD you get more performance/£ although they tend to be nosier unless you use something like a Zalman flower cooler

    This doesn't help a whole lot. What kinds of issues were you having with this processor that you gave it such poor reviews?

    U need to get tour facts straight! R u comparing the built in n-force video chip to the g-force 4 graphics card, the compatibility with intel or amd, or the processors. Either case i have a Amd 2400+ with a Gforce 5200 Ultra 128 MB and i outrun a P4 2.8 with a Gforce 5600 128 MB
