AMDZone.com has let the heat seriously get to them as they put a FX-55 Venice processor under a Prometia Mach II and overclocked the crap out of it. Anyone care to compare this AMD chip to a 3.6GHz intel processor?

Firstly,

It's San Diego, not Venice.

Secondly, pitting it against a 3.6GHz Pentium could never be considered a comparison, but more of a rape. Try pitting it against a 5.0GHz P4, that'd make more sense. ;)

ok so I got the chip core wrong, everyone knew what I meant since I don't think there is a Venice fx-55, and the 4GHz fx-55 was a clawhammer, also I've been offline for about a week so I dunno if anyone has taken a san diego higher than 3.6

I certainly didn't mean to be hard on ya, everyone makes mistakes. Just making sure if people read the comments they would see my corrections. Nothing against you friend.
