If they get past 3GHz on 65nm, will you concede that they beat Intel again?

Uh, no. It is clear Intel could go much further in 65 nm
than 3.0 GHz but they never had too. I'd be surprised
if less than half all of all Conroes made these days
couldn't clock 3.2 or 3.3 GHz. AMD is way behind that
despite having the complications and expense of SOI
and 2 or 3 more layers of interconnect.

As to 180nm, 1733MHz Athlon XPs (180nm Palomino) kicked the crap out of 2GHz P4s (180nm Williamette) in performance in both integer and FP

Really?

SPECint/fp_base2000

P4/2.00 - 681/735
K7/1.73 - 720/613

K7 is 5.7% ahead in integer and the P4 is 20% ahead
in FP. Nice try.
