I guess tho, if its really cheap a loooot of gamers will move over to this.
Joe
Intel Core 2 Quad 2,4 ghz vs core 2 duo 3.0 ghz
is around the same alley
As far as AMD's future goes... Intel may have the fastest CPUs, but none of my friends own one because the are too expensive. As long as AMD CPUs can compete in the mass market range ($30-$125), I think they will be fine.
On the topic, the multimedia bench looks pretty promising.
Is this Phenom chip the "native" quad core or the dual core Phenom chip? If its the quad core, they really shouldnt compare a quad core to a dual core.
Hopefully some aggressive pricing and clock speed ramps make these chips a real contender.
I’m really digging the UT2004 scores. ;) What a slip! They actually included a game that was not optimized for multi-cores. I thought it was a standard manner of operation when it came to latest CPU/GPU technology to avoid older games in benchmarking and therefore keep the illusion of progress.
Multi-core CPUs aren't useless!
Why are you saying dope things DuDe!
I have a core2 duo and it's realy handy in every day work/play/creative use!
And even programs that doesn't use many threads can utilyse the extra power,
when u wan't u can manualy adjust which program which cores use!
Ctrl+Alt+Del Then in task manager you can adjust running programs cpu affinity!
And that is a cool thing if you think about it...
I definitely wait for Phenoms to buy one!
When U have 4 Cores and hmm 2Monitors(that is no sience fiction novadays I think)
Then You can Play on then first, and on the second you sea your msn, virus scanner, tv
tuner, net rss, p2p, and so on! Or you don't play just doing some photoshop, or maya! I
think I buy a third monitor soon! :D:D:D
MultyCoreRulez! :)
