What a remarkable "accomplishment" !
Intel believes it has turned the tide on performance, citing 25 benchmarks where it holds a lead over AMD. The features of Intel's new Core microarchitecture, such as a larger and more sophisticated cache memory design and a faster connection to memory, are responsible for the boost in performance over Intel's older dual-core server processors, Kilroy said.


Imagine that, the all-mighty Intel, FINALLY managing to ... surpass the opteron's after SO MANY YEARS! The greatness, elegance and importance of this "accomplishement" simply boggles the mind... wink

1) What took Intell SO LONG???

2) Why Intel WAN NOT the performance LEADER ALREADY?

3) Were there independent and relatively objective benchamrks administered?

4) What about the NEXT AMD opterons with DDR2 and HT v3.00, etc.?

Having the Goliath "surpassing" the David after so many years, is NOT quite anything to brag about.

Also, what about the poor itanium-2 ? Comletely canned?
