Re: At 3GHz AMD loses. LOL, what does AMD lose, the highest gigglehurtz award ? :) The architectures diverge so sharply in many applications that another ~10% greater clock will make no difference to the outcome. You're not convincing anyone, mas. In the enthusiast processor market, performance means everything, and every percentage point of advantage will mean more that AMD can demand in terms of ASP. If you want to convince yourself that AMD doesn't need more performance, that should be easy for you to do. If you want to convince anyone else that AMD isn't limited by power or yield, then you'll have to do better.
