Ten re: are they talking about CPU* performance or actual system performance?* 1) Model numbers are to define relative performance characteristics of the chip and hence should be independent of system configuration and/or settings. 2) you also indicated that it is unfair to judge systems on performance alone and that intel systems should be given an extra credit please, do make up your mind <ggggggg> re: I see you'd rather change the subject not at all, I just saw it on amd thread posted. But since you insist on playing Clinton and you are not as good at it as him, maybe we should change the subject. Regards -Albert

>I see. So when AMD talks about "True Performance" in their "True Performance Initiative," are they talking about CPU performance or actual system performance? I see you'd rather change the subject than continue to defend AMD's "QuantiSpeed" campaign. I can understand. ;-)< The True Performance Initiative and QuantiSpeed are two independent things, lauched simulaneously by AMD to confuse the market. The True Performance Initiative is a set of benchmarks being advocated by AMD as a means of measuring the true performance of processors. It is a counter to Intel's influence in the benchmarking community. QuantiSpeed is a model numbering system that has no true link to actual performance.
