Pfft Intel FTW still.

Agreeeed ;)

not enough buzz words

Sounds like Spam.

Looks like they still can't push beyond the 2.4 mark with their bungled up engineering.

They can fit in as many cores as they like, but until most programs available scale to use them all efficiently, it's pretty useless to just tack on additional cores and say its better.

Yea, Its pretty sad really. Their competition for this cpu is a cheapo intel dual core.
It does seem like their just throwing in another core to "keep up with the jones's"

im probably gonna just buy a wolfsdale 3.13GHz this summer (new 45nm core 2 duo flagship cpu). benchmarks show its like 20% faster than the 3Ghz conroe

e8400 ftw

e8400 ftwThe E8400 kicks ars, clocks like a beast ;)

Ordering one very soon. Waiting on my Tax refund. :)
