Bill I still want to know what basis shows the intel IHS is any less variable than the AMD besides just what some of the vocal AMD folks have said about their CPU's? Relying on hearsay, and rumors in the back corners of the web, isn't that scientific of a basis for thinking the Intel is a superior design than the AMD. (or if there is any real difference at all besides what people report)
Trust me if there was any real factual examples that the Intel in the long term is a superior setup than the AMD I would be cool with it. But as far a I am concerned until then the Intel is as suspect as the AMD is.
Is it possible all the hard core are just using AMD's resulting in more vocal people using them, and therefore more vocal people complaining about them. If a small fraction use Intel CPU's then complaints about IHS variability will be less also.
