K10 Scores starting to surface

[awdrifter]

really? hmmm...i don't see that at all.



*yawn*

you DO realize that phenom will use DDR2-800, will launch at higher clock speeds, and will have better mainboard support at launch?

comparing C2D to a server processor is like comparing a Humvee against a X5. On pavement, the X5 will "win." off road, the Humvee. Two different focuses with two different applications.

calm down.

I really doubt that extra 133mhz on the memory is going to help a lot, maybe 1-2% at most. And when the desktop Phenom launches, Intel will be close to launching the 45nm version of C2D, so the clockspeed gap is even bigger. I don't see how AMD is going to win this round.

Just like the Hummer vs X5, most people will drive on paved roads most of the time (gaming) instead of off-roading (server stuff), so an X5 (C2D) is more suitable for most people than the Hummer (K10).
