Mordezmoncou Posted October 19, 2006 Author Share Posted October 19, 2006 why do you say the intel system? Seems like the amd system is more beefier? What if I upgrade the processor to a 3000 or a 3200 or even a 3400 and up the ram to 1gb Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/30648-wich-system-is-better/#findComment-212638 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korrupted Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 If you're upgrading, then why are you even considering the previous two? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/30648-wich-system-is-better/#findComment-212642 Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark4181 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 "which is better?" isn't a "yes or no" question lol but i'd go with the intel system, since you wouldn't have to worry about getting the amd chipset set up right Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/30648-wich-system-is-better/#findComment-212696 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes and no The amd is faster but intel would be a little more comatible to os x. Thanks to our DVD heroes we also have the cpu-id patches included in the releases, so if speed is an issue, then go for the amd because it will work with Tiger, too. Downside: I wouldn't expect 100% CPU support on upcoming kernel releases.

Mordezmoncou Posted October 19, 2006 Author Share Posted October 19, 2006 thanks! Will it work ok with 10.4.7 or 10.4.8 the amd chip that is? I have only had experience with setting them up on celleron systems, and one p4. So is there anything differnt when setting up the amd?
