sham, AMD's are supposed to be superior performers. If AMD would have gone to .13 microns they wouldn't have to lie about their speeds, they could have already been to 2.2 REAL GHz, and they could have shut up the naysayers by slapping Intel to the tune of...

but Intel has never said that AFAIK - it may be true but it's speculation. As for what happens between now and the dual cores in 3/4Q 2005, it would seem that Intel will tune the P4 process to get better speed grades... I'd guess up to ~4.5GHz, or so...

18/01 07:13 PM. Intel is going all the way down until Northwood have some sort of price/performance advantage. And lets just hope after Intel releases Northwood, they would use the same socket cuz I AM SICK OF INTEL DOING THOSE TEST THING!!!!!!!!! THG's...

as I know their price will jump a bunch when that agreement happens. It appears to me that Dell pretty much dances to Intel's tune. I believe that Dell using AMD processors is more or less based on the kind of deal that Intel would be willing to give Dell...

Intel to pay AMD $1.25B!!!!!!!!!!!. Wow! First Japan, then Korea, then the European Union, and now the N.Y. Attorney General have all either accused and/or found Intel guilty of anti-competitive and/or monopolistic behavior; and now this! and In light...

you have cheaper/slower and more expensive/faster. It's really a matter of what you want. The Phenom II will overclock some, but not to the tune that the Intel quad will. Again, were it my choice, I'd go with the Intel machine. Edit: Seems I'm too lazy to...

appearance at the INTEL developers forum? Benchmarks are like sex, everybody loves doing it, everybody thinks they are good at it. I'd say it makes perfect sense, since AMD will want to steal the spotlight from anything Intel might want to present. All...

this. Of course turn Turbo off for a 100% fair comparison. In the enthusiast world we do OC. But my main point is how certain fans of AMD tend to change their tune. When Intel became the better clock per clock and performance per watt CPU it became about...
