RE:"From what I've seen, people are tending to get 2.5-2.6GHz air cooled with Northwood 2.2GHz, and upwards of 3GHz with extreme cooling. Still, that's not bad."

No it's not bad. What's bad is all the nitpicking around here when everybody knows that Intel now has clear sailing for at least a year and AMD is in a world of hurt.

1.Even if the .13u Athlon scales 30% AMD is still the MHz/PR loser. Sometimes I wonder if the Intelabees really understand this...
2.On top of that Intel owns the benchmarkers.
3.Intel can market.
4.Intel owns US retail.
5.AMD has Jerry "cash in" Sanders
6.Intel has DDR if they need it.
7.Intel can now ramp Northwood as it's on .13u.
8. Dell one of the few boxmakers that is gaining share is Intel only.
9. AMD can't get to .13u and Hammer is delayed a year.
10. AMD hasn't learned the simple lessons.

AMD is a deci-loser.
