New Intel quad-core chips are really double duo-cores

Benchmarks: Thank you Axe. I did find it on Anandtech also.

#1) The test was set up by Intel, not in an independent lab (Hexus, Anandtech, etc.). They just reported what was run. They did not do their own benchmarks.

#2) The AMD box used an ATI chipset. Yuck. That would NOT be my choice if *I* was building a box.

#3) The Conroe still seems to have beat the FX.

Glad to see the war is on again! It was getting boring for a while. Intel needed to step up to the plate again.; Posted by: SC-man Posted on: 03/09/06 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
