Combjelly, Re: "Intel tends to lay things out at a lower level than AMD does, the "individually hand-crafted transistor" approach as opposed to the "tinkertoy" approach. The benefit of doing that is they tend to have a smaller die, lower power and likely can squeeze more out of a given architecture on a particular process than AMD can. The downside, there is going to be more errata because it's harder to verify."

I'll let one of the experts answer this with more certainty, but from looking at what you write here, it does not sound in the least bit correct to me. Are you really familiar with Intel's and AMD's CPU design approach, or did you perhaps speak without thinking (something that I do myself sometimes, so do not construe this question to mean that I am being confrontational with you)?
