Browser Wars 5 - Has Firefox 8 finally done it?

[YvesWonGhz17]

pcwizkid please update your firefox. i have firefox 10 now. :D

[video166]

@YvesWonGhz17 the video is over3 months old....

[LeftCZ]

you can't take the results seriously if you are using only 1 benchmark

[gameteacher101]

i like firefox more then chrome but it keeps crashing and why is version 8.0.1 on there donwload now server and mines dosent wanna update to that version since it keeps saying there is no update ?

[MicrosoftWindowsGuy]

I'd just like to know why in the hell are they going through version numbers so fast. Decimals, perhaps? Jesus... -__-

[lloose]

Some food for thought..

Chrome was designed by Google (a marketing company). This browser sends Google information about what you browse, what sites you visit, what you shop for, what you read, who you talk to online, and pretty much any information about you they can use as a marketing company.

Its not even hiding the fact that its spyware, yet people will defend it tooth and nail because it "runs fast".

[Baalund]

@lloose I can live with that.. What would i hide from Google? Am i ever gonna talk to a google guy who knows my information lol

[Brusier47]

@lloose I could care less if they use my interests to try and market things to me. I won't buy them..Like when you see a Honda commercial does that mean you'll buy one? It's not just that it's fast it's easy simple and to the point nuff said.

[LolTechTutorials]

@lloose You have a good point, but in the install, it asks you if you want to share your stuff with google. SO yeah

[John14073]

@lloose Who cares? Nothing you do is in secret on the internet, never has been, never will. Get over it and use whatever program you like. I use Chrome because of performance, if Google wants to use me as a voluntary test subject, by all means I'll let them. I love Google, I love Google Chrome.

[bijm007]

@John14073 You just proved his point. Good going

[John14073]

@bijm007 I didn't prove any point, read carefully and comprehend correctly before you comment.

[bijm007]

@John14073 Yes you did. His comment refers to the FACT that users disregard the certitude that it is doing those things in which he mentioned, and will STILL defend Chrome because it runs fast (or possibly they have their own reason).

In this matter of speach, you are proving his point.

[Christstuffer]

@John14073

You're a fucking tool and would readily allow your rights to be trampled.

Chrome is still the best browser though, unfortunately.

[John14073]

@Christstuffer This was months ago. Get the fuck over it or get the fuck off the internet.

[jrpg0630]

@lloose Still fast though, which is the most important thing.

[Christstuffer]

@lloose

Google is an evil company that needs to be smacked down by the government, but unlike Firefox, Chrome is an actual browser.

Mozilla forgot how to close their own program. That's pathetic. We the users need a browser to use the internet - end of story.

[McParcero]

still keep crashing ..

[sirtokesalot47]

i use firefox over other browsers the only thing i hate about it is how it needs to use up so much resorces to run takes it as moment to open sometimes and lags when opening things from the bookmarks list. aside from that i still use it.

[necromanticbunny]

The greatness of firefox addons overshadows the lesser speeds.

Top browser.

[Namenloser5]

please stop the updates with alpha, beta... I liked Firefox 4 very much!

[OneCompHelp]

Firefox 9 Beta is better.

[Mdschannel]

i like firefox, but i think chrome is just better in all aspects. I hear firefox performs better with a 150 tabs. Then again, what kind of unsystematic idiot operates that many tabs at once.

[OneCompHelp]

@Mdschannel Person that middle clicks a folder with 150 bookmarks.

[DemoncChivas]

I was using firefox 7.0 and Youtube lagged when trying to type a comment, 8.0 works fine.

[5865500]

MoZilla Firefox FTW!

[jerry417]

if you have had chrome how many time do you see oh snap before you snaped and said good by to chrome?it oh snap on me 10 x then i got rid of it

[mattd28]

We are all waiting for 64-bit Firefox

[9308323]

@mattd28 Nightly is already in 64-bit

[mattd28]

@9308323

I know but how far off are we from release

[mattd28]

@9308323

I know there have been 64-bit builds in development for a while but none reach beta or public release :(

[PhotoShopChannel]

@mattd28 There is one.

[Uldan1988]

@mattd28 Try beta :)

nightly.mozilla.org/

[wwmitchelww1]

@Uldan1988 Proof For Real?

[JohnDieselD]

@mattd28 IT'S HERE! It's called Firefox Nightly (search on Google).

[AndreaFranchitti]

@mattd28 not me

[MegaCrustyButt]

@mattd28 Yea, they need to release it soon.

[mysterymeat3]

Meh, FF was good, but now they're just cranking out "updates" every other day. I don't like how they went from 5 to 8 in a few weeks. Half my addons don't even work for it now. Glad I'm using chromium. I loved FF for many years, and I still like the visual style the best, but it's just not keeping up.

[coijoi]

cool♥

[proent]

Uh I'm still using FF3, cause some of my add-ons are not compatible

[HoMiCiDe1011]

nice intro bro...i like this one the best

[ytkuser]

good video but chrome for me by far is the best browser but that's just for me and my opinion. I like Firefox don't get me wrong but i left it behind a long time ago for chrome. and i like it better. I'm not a Firefox hater though i used it for many years.

[Davy2612]

Wait Version 8!? Wow time flies when your using Chrome.

[BilalBilu420]

may be its not best one but i love FireFox

[chrcoluk]

ff8 still laggy to hell and back andleaking memory out its backside. its got excessive GC.

[Remi1115]

Why do you (Only) rate a browser on how fast it is?

[infinitypark003]

@Remi1115 Isn't that the whole point of using a Browser? A faster browser can render pages quicker.

[Remi1115]

@infinitypark003

I understand that some people go for a quick browser but I personally like a browser that is more customizable and advanced.

[magzire]

Chrome has apps, it's like using a tablet. It's by far the bet browser!

[fan24drr]

Until I can get the speed of Opera with the compatibility and customization with Firefox, I'm not switching

[PTNLemay]

Ah IE... the dead horse.

[qwertyguy76]

firefox 8 is not that great, there is no support for java. and takes up so much memory, just look at the task mgr. it goes up 400mb! just stick with firefox 3.6.X

[gabewutang]

WOW and i thought google was shit ? who knew chrome was a fast motherfucker? i sure as hell didnt. thats for dam sure. Its a good day when you learn something totally contradicting to your prior beliefs. i mean unless is like your girlfriend is cheating on you but thats a complete different story.........................­...

[Iruini626]

i'm a googlee supporterrr. GO GOOGLEE!! >.<

[deepakm]

IF only chromes adblock worked..

[Tutorials4PRO]

@deepakm it does.

[oishiisushii]

@deepakm try adblockplus then

[ThiVasss]

chrome FTW soo fast and light!

[Metroidam11]

Who uses Opera? lol

[y35n00b5]

@Metroidam11 I do on my cell phone :o

[iDroid7]

just my opinion...

Windows 7, windows 8, hackintosh, ubuntu

desktop/laptop... Chrome FTW!!!

[forthhokage444]

@aznb0i I might upgrade to 2 6870s and remember psu"s degrade over time

[tres311]

pcwizkid could you or any of your viewers give me a list of games that will play on a intel i3 4g ddr3 laptop with intel hd3000 integrated graphics? gta 3 VC and san andreas will play? also ill have it hooked to a 24" monitor, thanks

[xxMEXICAN56xx]

@tres311 You can

[lloose]

Chromes great, but until it gets full Adblock Plus functionality, I will stay with Firefox.

[ddd0iii0eee0]

@lloose Chrome has and extension called AdBlock

[12x8u]

@ddd0iii0eee0

does it work as well as in firefox?

[ddd0iii0eee0]

@12x8u It works wonders for me

[Shadowriku40]

@12x8u Yes, AdBlock is sexy in Chrome. 

[starwarsfan76]

@lloose Hey guess what, I have Chrome AND Adblock :3

[Haroids]

@lloose ??? I thought it did have Adblock Plus.

[FearedBliss]

@lloose Chrome does have Adblock.

[xbasz]

@lloose Chrome has Adblock Plus beta. I'm using it right now.

[ytkuser]

@lloose It has the real adblock plus now you should go to adblock plus forums and d-load the dev build and you ave to enable the experimental addons for it. it works awesome.

[xXJigzieXx]

@lloose LOL it already has adblock, go search it in the chrome store, its free and even block youtube (:

[heardcountybrave]

@lloose Yea that is a the only thing about Chrome I don't like is that the adblock plugin isn't fully operational

[wingscancer]

@lloose kaspersly add blocker xD

[lloose]

@wingscancer thanks for the tip, I'll give it a shot.

[wingscancer]

@lloose np it block add you youtube partners as well

[wingscancer]

 think they have a free 30 day trial on there Internet security half to enable it though

[Darksonnify]

@lloose Theres a plugin...

[halamonsta]

@lloose dude..... chrome's had adblock for a year now....

[ImSAVTIIC]

@halamonsta FULL FUNCTIONALITY U TARD

[halamonsta]

@ImSAVTIIC MAYBE IF YOU ACTUALLY LOOKED AT THE CHROME WEB STORE. YOU WOULDN'T BE SO MAD LOLOLOL :D

In all seriousness.. Do some fucking research before u call someone else a tard.....

[ImSAVTIIC]

@halamonsta must be fucking stupid bro, he ment it dosent work on youtube because it still has ads, you shit kid

[halamonsta]

@ImSAVTIIC how the fuck do you think youtube makes money? Youtube gives out free entertainment... Yet they're trying to improve everyday.. Are u gonna die by watching a 10 second ad?

[halamonsta]

@ImSAVTIIC btw.... if u are using "ADBLOCK PLUS" for chrome.. u won't get youtube ads. there are only ads for "adblock"

[k1llmebill]

9 is already on its way, it's in beta... However I changed to chrome over a year ago.... Ff got too bloated... Although it's. Even on a diet lately :-)

[Mortald126]

Opera RULEZ

[HUPROJECT1971]

i use Opera

[RedGameBox]

WTF from firefox 3 to 8 in just few months ?

[RedGameBox]

chrome

[chinadistored22]

Firefox is cool, yeah!!!

[atersky]

Opera FTW.

[wjlaboy10]

It's so hard to stop using Google Chrome because of how light it is.

[capman911]

I use FireFox because I am use to the different add ons. I tried Chrome but really couldn't get the hang of their add ons. As for IE9 it's hard to believe that as big as Microsoft is their internet explorer sucks. I just wish the developers of the add ons could keep up with newer versions of FF. Great comment @BoBBaB0oN

[Crashbndcoot121]

Chrome really is the best browser (for me, anyway).

[Aristowi]

I love firefox but there is an issue that is been bothering me for a month and I don't know if other firefox users have it, when watching youtube videos the grey buffering bar is gone, so going a few seconds back isn't instant anymore, it starts buffering again (the red bar is the only one I see). Chrome and IE (ugh) still have the grey bar. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Thanks.

[VintageNewb]

Chrome gives me the grey exclamation point everytime I watch youtube but not firefox

[aljordan82]

Give Chrome a try.

[forthhokage444]

@Pcwizkid um can you rate my build

Fx 6-100

8gb 1866 ram

His iceq 6870

1000 watt psu kinwin

Nzxt phantom Biostar 990fx am3+ motherboard

Is everything compatible

[AgodlyOne]

@forthhokage444 Your build has a massive problem. It's AMD.

[aznb0i313]

@forthhokage444 1000 watts for that system is WAY over kill, you only need 1000 watts if you are going for 2 or more high end video cards. If you are only going to use one video card then I say get a 650 watt psu and use the money you saved for a CPU cooler.

[Hokrollo1]

GOOGLE FOR LIFE!

[Hokrollo1]

8? Was like 4 last was wasn't it? It's gone Chrome-a-like with updates every week? lol

[lukestoner96]

@Hokrollo1 Firefox 4 came out in June.

[Hokrollo1]

@lukestoner96

That's also only 5 months ago. IE 8 came out years ago, but we only just got 9.

[lukestoner96]

@Hokrollo1 Internet Explorer is typically released alongside new versions of Windows is one thing I've noticed.

[Hokrollo1]

@lukestoner96

Ye and Ubuntu updates like all the time too:P Just seems like a new trend that Firefox do so much. May gone bit more mainstream now like Ubuntu. Nether he less - GOOGLE WILL CRUSH'EM!

[naryanr]

I was Firefox all the way, but I had to face facts, Chrome was better... and improving faster.

And he's not using Opera 12, genius, because it's Alpha software.

I don't see you complaining that he's not using the BETA of Chrome 16.

[AirForcedude5]

im still running ff 4 lol

[peterdoa1]

firefox aurora

[GamerAndReviewer]

I'll stick with Chrome, until Google destroys it... Lol.

[TearsOfWar1]

Why the fuck are you not using Opera 12? I am using it... You should makes sure all the browsers are all current...

[TearsOfWar1]

Opera 12 bitches.

[Supuhstar]

Opera FTW

[Xboxshqip]

i use Nightly and when i browse the internet after a wile i get a back screen for 1 second then a message popes up your display driver have stooped working and have successful recover this happen mostly when im on Facebook and photo sites like ficker ect

[comptuerwizTV]

NOOO GO GOOGLE CHROME!!!!!!

[sirvulcan12]

Meh I'm still going to use firefox what can i say im old school... you youngians and your cromes

[CptNogoman]

Comodo Dragon FTW. Secure, fast and Chrome.

[UslennoX]

Opera doesn't even work on pc and Mac now....

[TearsOfWar1]

@UslennoX Now that's just total misinformation... I am on it right now buddy..

[ThePhysicsOf]

What about COMODO's new browser called "dragon"? its basiacly a modded version of chrome but i think its faster still and with more security then chrome.

[TheGT4sm]

I don't care if Chrome's fast, I'd choose IE over it just because of the layout. I use Firefox though, and I love it.

[sangolt88]

I still use Firefox 3.6, but Im gonna try out V.10 when its out. Cant live without HTML5 and stuff like that forever. Firefox 10 also brings a new design I think.

[Swierzaczek95]

i use firefox 8 anyway dont care bout the benchmarks much xD

[uncled39]

I think i'll wait for Firefox 78 due out in 2012.

[LucasMatosRodrigues]

Firefox 1.0 ~ 3.6.x >> Chrome !

[micsuite]

ff ftw

[Spetatz]

LOVE THE SONG???

A NAME???

[Robert1995]

Chrome is now v15 ??? (Windows)

[muiecopyright]

Still using firefox 3.5.19 way to stable then the rest of the version.

[megamogx]

I use firefox for surfing n i use chrome for Youtube and media....

[danerdsskaters]

i would never use firefox, idk why but to me its just terrible (i use chrome, IE9, safari)

[BoBBaB0oN]

internet explorer the browser to download other browser

[Hokrollo1]

@BoBBaB0oN

Not if you use Mac or Ubuntu.

[YmCmbZ]

@BoBBaB0oN haha so fucking true!!! 

[uzairg5123]

@BoBBaB0oN lol

[Shadowriku40]

@BoBBaB0oN TRUEFAX

[gnip3999]

I am still using Firefox 3.2.24 and I am not moving until they bring back that bottom bar

[andreasonkokal]

@gnip3999 you can put that upper bar into bottom



[gnip3999]

@andreasonkokal Then wouldn't you lose the upper bar?

[LegoFilmKid]

@gnip3999 i love that version

[goldieken]

Firefox is far from perfect, but overall I still think it's the best and its range of plug-ins is unbeatable.

[JaxxDaemon]

I loved firefox, fan boy to the end, then I tried Chrome and havent gone back since.

[Dell0304]

@JaxxDaemon Same here. But now that I have a Mac I use Safari because Chrome uses too much resources.

[AndrewHume1]

Do it on nightly

[Musicarta]

I've been using Chrome for quite some time now; it has definitely been the best performer since!

[TheDuke00000]

Chrome/Nightly master race, everything else is peasant tier.

[nelizmastr]

firefox 27 for the win.

[DaGleese]

what about if firefox is tweaked to go as fast as it can? like the network pipelining and maxrequests etc

i wonder how it would do vs chrome then?

[uncled39]

I am looking forward to Firefox 12

[Eragon86micky]

i use firefox 8.... i'm waiting for Opera 12

[matusemco]

internet explorer ft......oh wait its not funny

[fshlps]

Browser Wars - Comodo Dragon

[srwboy]

I can't wait for the day that Firefox becomes number 1 so I can stop using Chrome.

[CrysisLTU2]

I'm still using Firefox 3 and I don't even want to upgrade.

[MegaGeekTutorials]

I can't get firefox 8 since I'm using Ubuntu. Can you make a tutorial on how to upgrade?

[deadly1010P]

firefox and chrome :)

[LordReserei01]

I switched to Chrome from Firefux a year or two ago now - never gone back. Even after trying the updated versions now and then including 8.

[1300l]

I love Opera, cant use any other

[alphaspida]

chrome ftw

[armandornd]

@JHyde93 One of the only reasons why I use Firefox is because of the ability to have RSS Feeds. That's why I switched Google Chrome to Firefox.

[Supabof93]

Firefox never appealed to me before they updated every other week. Now they've lost the plot.

[wamasakyy]

I switched from Firefox to Chrome a few months ago because Firefox was so slow and I have optic fibre internet.

[triavatar]

@wamasakyy where do u live?

[wamasakyy]

@triavatar montreal :)

[AnotherVadammt]

i like your new intro :D

[JohnDieselD]

NIGHTLY FTW <3
