I thought I had read that comparing the GHz on AMD and Intel CPU's wasn't a true reflection of their respective processing power.
AMD is slower in GHz so the 3400 is actually more like 2.8
they use the number 3400 to say thats what it compares to in Intel
AMD 3200 operates at 2150 MHZ, but has a larger bus for processing data on the CPU..it is the equivalent or better than a Pentium 3.2*the 3200 is a marketing tool since many folks think that MHZ is what determines the processing speed, when in fact is only a part of equation, bus size is just as relevant.* The reason is "or better" is because by operating at a lower MHZ the CPU runs cooler and therefore does not overheat. Heat slows processing speed.Message Edited by KeeferKman on 09-01-2005 02:20 PM
Yes, this extends WELL beyond processor specs as well. AMDs have been stated to be more efficient at similar clock speeds (so fewer cycles wasted erasing then rewriting the info), but the Apple/consoles benefits further by having a "closed system". No need to support 286 computers, so the software can run more efficiently.

Good question, though I had assumed that this wasn't the case since the damage would have been SO drastically decreased that the OP would have realized that this was the problem.

Can you believe this guy? I gave him the 120 dmg, -3fc pearl he has in his saber. He just got FR and probably has not learned to turn it off when standing toe to toe with a krayt. Yo Norjy I got yo' back. See you later tonight for more krayt bashing.

Yeah, Wasz, I know you hate me for it being my turn!
Just think about the 8 pearls I've been hording because I can't bear to get anymore bad tunes, and the bout of depression I'll get when they all DO tune bad, that will make you feel better!
Long weekend, I've tried all sorts of stuff, still the same thing, gettinglousy damage, lessthan my minimum damage. FR doesn't appear to cause any difference in damage, none that I could see in the combat log. I did try the detailed combat log and if you look at the damage before the mob's resists reduce it, it looks like it might be a case of increased mob resists rather than LS nerf.
I'm seeing other's weapons are getting crappy damage too, maybe everyone's damage got nerfed through increased resists. The problem is no-one else seems to be aware of any change, but Iknow for suremy LS damage dropped at least 200 pts sometime in the last couple weeks.
