Ok, well, now, you all know i fried my chip, so, wich is & quote "A better core?" & quote, AXIA, or AYHJA?
BTW, for some reason & quote wthout the space shows up as this "e =P reference for the future

unless ur into running benchmarks ur really not going to see a difference in specific versions of a chip all else, ie speed, being equal. personally i dont much stock into benchmarking. my preference right now is intel CPU and boards namely P3.

Well, janna, I was looking for more of a a complete answer, as to what the difference is, not speed ect. As for the p3 bit, i think your a little one sided, because you use p3's, im open to both. I like AMD's and P3's, the whole bit about AMD's crashing is crap, i had an old k62 and i've yet to have a problem with it, i'll have a T-Bird soon as well, since the first one fried due to bad jumper instructions. I've also had a p3 500mhz, and a clereon 500mhz, so, i've used both, and there both pretty much the same as far as i can tell.
now, back to this core thing, whats the REAL difference, or is it just the manufacturer? as the AYHJA core is 100$ more then an AXIA core, at the same speed.

Darky, I haven't read up on the AYJHA core, but i'm guessing that it will overclock much better and possibly run cooler. Usually a different core stepping pushes the limits on speed a little further.
When the AXIA core appeared, I know people were going crazy over it.

If you aren't overclocking, then as far as anything is concerned, there is no difference between the cores.

since ive started here at my new job ive had more oppurtunity than ever to have access to large numbers of computers rather than playing with an isolated one or two that i have to pay for myself. i manage a small network by some standards of around 40 computers. we have a mixture of all sorts from K7 to compaqs to dells to hp to emachines and 486's. when i upgrade one of our comps i actually use celerons none of the comps here except my laptop and the server has a P3. i have gradually phased out the K7 and emachines as they have burned out one by one and i am replacing them with Dells and Celerons riding in intel i810 MB. K7 under normal use crash a lot and i replace them when i can. some people have good luck with them but i really dont think they are that good of a deal over all.
but i dont think its bias of any sort i have a long twisted history using AMD stuff and i have never been impressed with their performance to price. from the K5 to the K7 they are more of a hassle to setup and maintain then they are worth. but that is my opinion. the only problem i have is that our financial program here uses Dos print comands and for some reason cant handle the new printer ports on the latest comps

Sorry Darky, I was assuming the AYHJA core was newer. In fact, I do not know which one is the newest.
Usually the newest cores yield higher performance when overclocked.

K7s that weren't built and set up properly maybe. I power use my home machine, and the work athlon I used to have, and never had a stability problem. Almost every power user I know IRL has a perfectly stable athlon. Every athlon sysadmin has built at work has been perfectly stable ( which is why sysadmin is slowly replacing all our pee3s with athlons, and almost every person with a single processor config now has an athlon ). I mean hell, my dual p3 at work bluescreens at least once a month.
Anyway... I think he meant you sounded biased because you started pushing intel in a thread that was only about AMD.

Ok, for those of you who are wondering, i just got off the phone with the ATICOM guy, who left about 6 messages on my answering machine, stateing they didn't have my AXIA chip that i wanted, and offered me the AYHJA chip of the same speed, at the same price (normally 20$ more). Of corse I hastely agreed.
Seemed like a eprfect opertunity to ask him what the difference was, so I did.
Aparently, it runs about 10 degrees farenhieght cooler, and is more "Overclockable" then the AXIA core. He also added in the statement as to why they no longer had the AXIA chips, he claimed they are no longer in production.
So, theres the reason, think theres something i left out or sometihng i wasn't told? post it here =)
And yes, i did mean biassed because JANNA mentioned P3's in this thread, ment only for AMD's =)
