ok some ppl are talking the talk. I want to talk the talk correctlyso i did my research, consulted my teachers spent lots of time on intel forums, and on amd forums.
i am going to compare the intel x6800 to the amd fx-62
X6800 | fx-62
L1 Cache 32KB+32Kb | 128KB+128KB
L2 Cache 4M Shared | 1M Each Core
Clock 2.93GJz | 2.8GHz
Cores 0/1 | 0/1
Comm Through NB | Through L1C
Im telling these things because they make the biggest difference.
What is the L1 Cache? Data+exec/How much Data can be transfer per cycle+ How much data can be Executed per cycle.
Clock 1 Hz= 1 instruction per second. 1ghz= 1billion instructions a second
L2 Cache is like the waiting line for the L1 Cache
Comm= communication between core0 and core1. this is really important. amd communicates between the two cores using the L1 cache, intel uses the northbridge to communicate. Why is this important? the shorter the bus of communication the faster data is transfered, and the better reaction time.
now i hear intel fans like i was saying "it has twice the clock speed so its twice as good"
wrong. if i have 4 boxes i want moved intel can move 1 box at a time twice as fast as an amd, but amd can move all 4 at the same time at half speed. in breif even though intel moves twice as fast, amd still gets it done twice as fast.
everything i have told you is true as far as the sources i have gathered. if you think i am wrong, pm me and i will tell you in a simpler manner.
from this info i have given up my love of intel, and i now like my amd so much better.
however intel fans dont give up. Xeon! the intel dualcore xeon is still the best processor for networking servers. opteron does not network near as fast as an intel xeon, however opterons move data so much faster, and edit video faster. so intel has a chance at making a comeback with quadcore xeons, however the architechure needs to be improved from the idea they have now.
again correct me if yu think i am wrong
