actually Intel don't have their own chip.Core i7 = Pentium D with the performance of C2Q and Stollen Ideas from AMD Phenom. Intel HyperThreading?A big joke.If you look at the tests you would see that Core i7 is faster with HT disabled.So it is not needed.And...

Atom, where AMD doesn't have any competitor to speak of yet. So Intel will probably want to put a dent in AMD's enthusiasm. I just wonder how much profit margin AMD is making at the lower price points they put in place after Intel's price cuts a month ago....

the phenom II will drop any intel prices for MONTHS, unless its a severe blow, but c'mon, its AMD, they're so behind, it's kinda pathetic but yeah, the 295 should cause price drops oh, somewhere after 1-2 weeks after its release? its usually how it works...

day, and AMD does quite well with them as to perf/price. It isnt til we see i5-i7 fully impact those Intel sales that AMD wont be competitive, but again, thats also dependant on Intels pricing, as, I inferred, if the overall market has a somewhat permanent...

indeed they cut prices. The Phenom II's are as large as the Nehalem's die-size-wise, and given that SOI wafers cost more than plain silicon, plus the fact that Intel is a year ahead of AMD/GF on process, means Intel's 45nm is cheaper and probably higher yields...

2 years and have been improving the process ever since. For all we know, it might cost intel just 75% or less off the retail price and could just do a price cut anytime. With the advent of i5 and i3, intel still maintains its very good price to performance...

the CPU, is AMD better than Intel for my price range? For instance, i been looking at this other post which came out to be around my price range and the person suggested AMD Athlon II X2 250 Regor ^ see second post Again, thanks in advance (I apologize...

time, so there was no way they could have produced more CPUs. And according to Intel the EC suppressed evidence favorable to Intel. The jury is still out on that one.... Intel will have a range of product pricing of course - just how many CPUs do you think...

I5 out, no phenom II 965 price drop, wtf?. i5 benchmarks add 6-15 fps to your top end games, shake 10-20 seconds per 100 meg off processing, and sells for $209 on newegg yet the 965 is still at $245, am I missing something here? Drop that damn price to like...
