Re: I'm not the only one here who thinks that AMD should introduce faster SC A64 modells NOW!!! and they will compete EXTREMLY WELL against all SC which Intel has With Athlon 64 rapidly headed toward budget territory I doubt AMD wants try making high volume 2.6+GHz parts that sell for ~$150. Bin splits may not be great at that frequency and single-core production volumes will start decreasing soon as dual-core becomes more popular. I'm not as sure as your, just look at 64Bit benches in the NEW C't (german Tech magazine - number 1) where performance between the two get a whole different picture. Hopefully Microsoft launches Vista by July 23rd then. ;-) You also forget performance using VT AMD hasn't even shown benchmarks showing how much and under what conditions AMD's VT outperforms Intel's VT. VT will be a non-factor on a vast majority of desktop purchases anyway.
