What's that sound?

It's the sound of the gurgling from AMD's head as it is being held under water.

xbitlabs.com

What would you buy? A $180 AMD processor, or a cheaper one from Intel that beats it by leaps and bounds in every benchmark, while dissipating less under load than the AMD processor dissipates while idle...?

Xbitlabs conclusion: In other words, the second reincarnation of dual-core processors on Core micro-architecture turned out a definite success. The only upsetting thing about it is that the sales of these processors will definitely shake AMD’s positions in the market even more, because they cannot offer anything of the same performance level at the time. All dual-core processors from AMD are slower than the new Core 2 Duo E8000 series, which automatically ousts them from the $150+ price segment, where Intel’s dual-core solutions will now become the only player.
