we have no doubt all seen the screenshots of the gulftown wonder strutting its stuff about the interwebs, we know that amd has hexacore server chips as does intel, the last time amd had a first to market was the whole 64bit thing, but since then its been no win with intel being first to market with pretty much every new advancement in microprocessing, the both companies have slated q1 2010 as the time to release hexacore processors
both companies say that the current gen boards will support hexas so the framework is already in place, but recently i got to thinking, what if amd really dropped the first hexa, gulftown would no doubt whup its arse, simulatons have even shown that an amd hexa will be barely neck and neck with an i7 975, but is there really a posiblity that amd can get a hexa out b4 intel?
