Gosh, why turn everything into Intel vs AMD?! I'm simply talking K10 vs K8 here. Due to the low clock rate of Phenom, it will most likely be outperformed by the X2 6400+ and perhaps even the X2 6000+ in non heavily threaded applications.
Thus, in certain benchmarks we will have a case of old outperforming the new. That is bad PR.
Unlike AMD, Intel actually has equivalently clocked quads (albeit much more expensive). That is the difference.
