meh the 1.8ghz dual core opty 1210 clocks to 3.2ghz (easily) hopefully the 65nm and lower vcore hopfully will let this chip clock pretty high (maybe the 3ghz range?)

omg !!! HELL YEAH!!! :) :toast:

right on track for my bday, woot!

Sweet :toast:

nice that AMD is getting more up to date i want a 65nm to see how they overclock.

They do have out 65 NM procs now. Even some of the newer optys are on the same die size.

I want the 45w(or what ever it is) Athlon x2 (65nm) i would like to see a 65nm sempron if the 90nm hit 3.1ghz than i would like to see what a 65nm can do if a dual core x2 the new one hit 3+ghz than a sempron would be kick ass.

Looks likes the Kentsfield and Conroe are no longer top of the game. :D

heh, not trying to be a fan boy here, but theyre STILL way behind intel. intel already has a couple 45nm plants.

This progression to 65nm seems slow to me, and the progression of dual to quad core is also mighty slow. I'll put aside the fact that software still has catching up to do...

fan boy JK:laugh: I agree they are behind before you go calling me a fan boy look at my system specs.

Many people have already had the 65nm dual cores to 3GHz or higher. I had my Brisbane to 3GHz on 1.55v, and I know a few that got higher than me on less volts with better chips.

Indeed, because having a new 65nm plant means they magically have killer chips out.

I am talking about the NEW Athlon x2(EE) not Athlon 64 x2.
This is the one i am talking about the 45w CPU

I still believe AMD just = raw power, and Intel = raw speed. I have a core 2 system.. and my AMD eats it..

Sorry, but that statement just doesn't make any sense. And what's the core2 system clocked at? And what are you using for the basis of comparison?

I've had an equal ratio of Intel's to AMD systems over the past 8 years, and loved intels because they were always fast, but also loved amd's because they preatty much took everything I threw at them, where as the intel's were a little left behind.. I still have a Athlon XP 2800+ barton 2.08ghz stock, that chews up my intel p4 2.4...


I've tried both systems at stock settings and oced setting for my core 2 vs amd x2.. and my amd beat the core 2 in almost every area.. my core 2 does things faster, but my amd does more at once at a constant pace where as the core 2 doesn't..

I don't know man. I think there is something else at play here. Something has to be holding the Core2 back, if that's the case.

its a possibility. i'll admit i'm an amd fanboy, but amd's arn't that far behind performance(speed, power) wise. intels run a lot warmer than amd's as well.. that and they are still way too overpriced. the motherboards are twice as much as some am2 boards.

FOXCONN1115the motherboards are twice as much as some am2 boards.

That I won't argue with. lol. A good overclocking AMD board can be had for $80 or less. (I know, I have one. lol)

lol my $129 EVGA board only cost me $90.. for the same board in intel form, its like $180 or so I believe..

I spent $99+shipping for my Gigabyte when i bought it.This thing overclocks to 400+mhz on FSB with stock chip-set volts.

I built my now ex-gf a computer.. she uses is for mulimedia/webdesign.. AMD based.. she loves it. socket 939.. athlon x2 3800+ @ 2.4GHz, 2GB of Corsair XMS, 2x7800gt's.. stands up to Adobe Creative Suite 3 like its on vacation. :D

Yes A XP destroys P4, but Core 2 vs A x2 at the same clock speeds, Core 2 should be faster.

Is a A xp older than a P4?
