Blah, Blah, Blah. That article says a whole lotta nothing.

More pointless pro-Intel drivel from an obvious fanboi. You're slowly becoming the Intel version of 9-Inch.

Whatever.

Yeah, another meaningless opinion by some dimwitted author who thinks he's writing something technical, but there's nothing useful there. Although it's somewhat refreshing to read a BS article from an Intel fanboi instead of AMD; variety is the spice of life, after all.

Nothing technical at all.

Did they mention the performance of Yorkfield / Nehalem and Barcelona? No.
Did they mention the 4P+ server spaces? No.

Well, at least Intel admits Barcelona is more elegant approach :wink: But I agree with one aspect - time to market is important, for the sake of concurency I hope Barce. will deliver whats promised.

It's good that you've got a purpose in life, but you make a very poor martyr. Your time would be better spent using a shoehorn to pry your head out of your a$s.

The baron has predicted a quad core will not reach 3.2ghz with out 45nm die, when gateway and others sell 3.2-3.4ghz over clocked systems - and some none sense about 150watts - like he works at intel R&D

now all intel had to due is pull a amd and sell chips right at the max clock - like they do now!


AMD true quad core is called 4X4 right? man they are fling off the shelves

"Billed as a "true" quad-core chip, Barcelona has four processor cores on a single piece of silicon, or die, compared to Clovertown, which straps together twin dual-core dies inside a single package, yielding a quad-core processor. "


i take my quad core in my had today over a imaginary "true" quad core someday in the future -

I think I remember reading somewhere that people that worry about elegance in war never get to far. Might have been a Dune novel or so, but the principle does kinda apply. Hack and chop jobs never get you anywhere, but being sticklers for only "elegant" designs gets you left behind.
