• AMD: Intel's Conroe power advantage claim based on skewed metric
  July 14, 2006 – 6:19 PM
  With Intel's upcoming Core 2 Extreme processor boasting a thermal design point (TDP) of as low as 75 watts, it would appear Intel has regained the advantage over AMD's Athlon 64 FX-62 at 125 watts. But TDP measures power dissipation , not consumption, AMD claims, as part of its campaign to re-educate Intel's would-be customers on the eve of that company's most critical product launch ever.

• The long road to Conroe
  July 27, 2006 – 12:14 PM
  We started hearing the word Conroe back in March 2004. We thought it was like "Blackcomb," the term Microsoft uses for the catch-all, "next-next generation" of Windows that will have all the features that didn't make Vista. We learned Conroe would be the child of something called Merom, the most influential and powerful design in Intel's history. This is its story.
