Looks like X2 doesn't have much of a problem outperforming C2D then! Check the platform used for C2D... 946GZIS?!?! WTF?!

Make no mistake, AMD is just as bad as Intel (if not worse) when it comes to fudging numbers in their favour. It's just business. It's up to us discerning techies to seperate the FUD from the truth.
I don't see what's wrong with the data. It seems very accurate to me. Turion X2 and Core 1 Duo (not Core 2 Duo) are pretty much comparable, and that is a slide showing performance with INTEGRATED GRAPHICS. AMD has been traditionally strong in this area. Again, I don't see what problem is.

This seems much better than Intel running heavily cherry-picked CPU samples for their shows. At least the AMD demos have been representative of the current processor health.
