Need for Speed Pro Street

[happy and angry]

its funny how Intels Xtreme Quad Core CPU are still being compared to the Old FX-60 and the performance of the FX-60 its near the xtreme and the xtreme beats it in just a few things. just imagine when the Phenom CPUs comes out, Intels ass its going to hurt so much and at a lower price...

I showed you a link comparing the Phenom (which is out) to the Quad Cores AND the Core 2's, AND losing to both. Learn to read.

Intel can burn in hell with their fake ass quad cored 12mb L2 cache xtreme CPUs.

How are they fake when they have 4 fully functional cores, exactly?

I think it's cute that you buy into AMD vs. Intel spin from a year or more ago. Stay current. It's kind of important in this field.

I don't think Intel was afraid, seems more like AMD was with how fast they pushed the Phenom out. There's even a nice "feature" of the cpu that makes your computer unstable. They pushed it out too fast and that little bug slipped past the QA team. The bug is only present on the B2 stepping Phenoms. This is the first time in my 10+ years of experience with computers that I've ever heard of a cpu released with a bug that makes your computer unstable. You can read about that here:

Sorry if I came off as attacking your AMD processor before when I said to get rid of it. I have nothing against AMD, I used to have an Athlon 64 before my Core 2 Duo. I'm not loyal to any brand, whatever gives me the best framerate in games is what I'm gonna buy. At the time when I upgraded my computer Intel was that brand, and still is. The Intel processors may cost a bit more but they will give you a better framerate in most games.

Oh, and why do you even make the argument about AMD processors being cheap? Obviously you've got tons of money, 2x 8800 Ultras, 3x 22" inch monitors, and those FX processors were never really that cheap.

But yeah... if you wanna get the best possible framerate in games, go Intel and go back to Windows XP. Atleast pick up the Athlon X2 6400+ black edition if you're gonna be a die hard AMD fanboy.

I dont need to get the 6400+ Black Edition Since my FX-60 its overclocked above the 6400+ on Water. my system might not be the lastes rig out there but its running perfect, i have more than 13 years of experience buidling and fixing computers, and tweaking operating systems and let me tell you.. when you know how to deal with Vista 64 Ultimate you dont need or want to go back to Windows XP, the difference between them is day and night. Vista runs 1000 times better everyhing than XP, you just need to know to work with it and tweak it, vista has hundres of posibilties of making it 100% a custom and faster OS where XP cant go...

to let you know, if you havent read, the Present realease Phenom is not the best of them or the fasters, the other phenom models are coming out soon which are bigger, better and stronger than the actual model they have release a quite bit of time ago.. why do you think intels already release their 45 nm CPUs when a little earlier they had release their 60 nm xtreme processors...they know AMD its going to come out with a CPU that its going to rock Intels ass.. and im not a Fan boy of AMD ive buidling and fixing computers as a computer technisian for over 14 years and i know how these whole intel amd war has gone around.. and the prices are not just a bit.. the fastes amd cpu right now which is the 6400+ only cost $ 159, against the lates xtreme which goes up to $ 1,149. how is that just a bit in price ? and the performance of the intel aint all that impressive to say next to the 6400+ and much less for the price they are being sold..

do you reasearch and youll find out intels 4 core cpus arent 100% 4 cores.. im tired of reading these thing just google it, and youll see that the only true 4 core cpu its going to come up with the new phenom amd, not the actual phemon is on the market, the bad boy is not out yet..

 

[808MP5]

I think we need to change the title to "intel vs. Amd"

Anyways just buy the supra and do wheelies all the way down the strip.

 

[happy and angry]

Listen, before this goes any further, I should probably tell you that I'm a computer engineer. I do software development, I do hardware testing.

do you reasearch and youll find out intels 4 core cpus arent 100% 4 cores..

Quad Cores are 2 Core 2's on the same di. There are four cores. They can handle four different CPU specific threads.

im tired of reading these thing just google it, and youll see that the only true 4 core cpu its going to come up with the new phenom amd, not the actual phemon is on the market, the bad boy is not out yet..

You're kind of dumb. "The Phenom on the market isn't the real Phenom that isn't released yet." What. The hell.

the Present realease Phenom is not the best of them or the fasters, the other phenom models are coming out soon which are bigger, better and stronger than the actual model they have release a quite bit of time ago

So what? I'm sure AMD will eventually release something that competes with the Core 2's and Quad Cores, but they haven't yet. Until they do, they aren't the fastest chip on the market.

why do you think intels already release their 45 nm CPUs when a little earlier they had release their 60 nm xtreme processors

Because they can? Power consumption? Heat management? Guarantee making even more inroads into the laptop market? Do you understand how markets work? In point of fact, AMD rushed the Phenom out the door BECAUSE of market pressure from Intel and the way their Core 2's and Quad Cores were performing. Not the other way around. Similar to how AMD beat Intel to the punch on the performance side of things during the P4 fiasco.

the fastes amd cpu right now which is the 6400+ only cost $ 159, against the lates xtreme which goes up to $ 1,149

Why don't you compare along the same performance bracket to get a more representative price comparison? Compared to the E6600 Core 2 (which is about as fast, better in some areas worse in others), I can find 6400+ chipsets for maybe 80 dollars less.

But, if you'll recall, I never argued Intel was cheaper. Just faster. Your senseless "AMD will walk all over Intel eventually maybe" crap is just that: crap. Intel has the undisputed fastest architecture right now. Read that again: RIGHT NOW.

 

[knowledge007]

Well done...

 

[clos561]

I heard that Need for Speed Carbon also has a MS3 in it.

yea but its rwd(cricket)

fisrt of all, you dont need to insult no one here, and you can be a computer engineer or Bill gates, dont matter to be. Ive never mentioned in here that AMD was Faster than Intel, i was just saying is the best Bang for the Buck, i have seen lots of testing between the old FX-60 which is the one i have against the Xtreme version of intels CPU and the amd performs in some stages better, in other near, and others looses. about the 4 core thing im really surprice you havent read where everyone out there says intels 4 cores cpus are not true 4 cores, and that the only true one its coming out in the amds Phenom model. the one on the market right now is not Amds Best Phenom model cpu, i also hope you know that.... i mean for the price and performance AMD today its better than Intel in Price and Performance its about if you get what i mean. and Quit the Smart ass insulting here, i could care less about Intel, Amd and what you really think about them here !!!

Well I've been playing a lot of prostreet. I have a Supra tuned out the ass running 6.7 on the 1/4. I also hate the fact that they gave the Evo X remarkable handling and the RX7, RX8, S15 all bad handling! The best I could run in the Speed 3 on the 1/4 was a 10.3 with stage 4 everything.

 

[pdodson311]

i think they need to make need for speed most want for ps3. just up date the cars and put in honda cars in this time around.

how did u tune the supra? Could u post up the settings? The fastest I got was 7.44sec. I've read that the supra can do high 6's but can't get the tuning right.

Just put full stage 3/4 on the Supra then under the engine setting up the start boost to full and the end boost to full. It should give you exactly 1048hp. I haven't really figured out the right nitrous setting yet. I'm thinking maybe time it for the full run and just make it a long continuous shot throughout the track.

That's one of the runs I've done with the nitrous too early.

 

[CantCMe]

lemme fire this Pro street up and see what happens...

 

[staples187]

Let me know how it goes and if you need any other pointers.

 

[staples187]

Just finished the drift king and the drag king. I used an S15 which I've gotten down to a 7.2 on the drag. I used the same S15 that I turned into a drift machine for the drift king. Very controlable yet not obnoxious car. It only gets 350HP with stage 3 components, but it can get pretty sideways. The RX7 to me was a little bit too much and I couldn't control it as well. Turn the front and rear tire PSI up 3 slides under "Tune". The S15 is terrible in Grip because the handling isn't stiff so I don't recommend it for that style, but everything else is great.

Got Carbon for $10 shipped from Amazon.com. It's 80% like Most Wanted, but does have some new stuff in it. I'm having fun with it, if you liked MW there's lots of new area to drive and everything is at night. Color palette seems brighter, MW was sort of drab. It's fun customizing a Mazdaspeed3, plus it has classics like Camaros, Mustangs, and Chargers. Their stock Mazdaspeed3 is slow though, it's about right up to 60 but after that it really runs out of breath. Takes forever to get to 100, which is stupid. Guess it's a mistake or a gameplay balance decision.

 

[staples187]

Yeah but the handling on the speed 3 in carbon is terrible even with stage 3 suspension. Prostreet has a lot better balance with the front wheel drive.
