Wanna_bmw, Re: This should definitely be worrying to AMD's PR. I wonder what their response will be.

Oh, they already have responded. I've found this on my webserver:

PS: I tend to agree with you that the model rating can't scale forever as it is now. However, clock-speed alone can't be the right metric to compare the two different architectures. The True Performance Initiative is IMO a step into the right direction. However, both AMD and Intel have to work together if they want to establish a new metric that allows to easily compare their processors.
