CNET

AMD for a while now with it’s Athlon64/Opterons have been spanking Intel in nearly all areas. Well CNET shows how much spankage is going on with dual cores. The results are ugly. CNET IMO is not the best review site out there..so the fact that the results came out like this shows that AMD is way ahead of Intel in technology and performance right now. Merom however MIGHT be interesting..however Intel is still using some old technology in that chip so it will be interesting to see how it performs. The bigger question is…does AMD have a merom killer just waiting in the wings?
