AMD X2 6500+ coming

[villa1n]

informal did the maths in another thread...



I stand by my 'slightly behind Conroe' comment. Furthermore that comparison is against the older 1066FSB Conroes, 1333FSB Conroes would be a bit further ahead (2.33GHz E6550 ~= 2.4GHz E6600, so 1333FSB Conroe would be ~4% faster than Kuma).

its relative, it could also be faster in 2/3 tests. Again, this is with a slow nb/htt, as deneb will have a 2.0ghz clock, as a value dual core, it looks like it will do well, it just depends on how high it can clock, if it can reach 3+ and handle 2.2+ nb htts then it will be a solid competitor.
by conroe i refer to kentsfield(merom...what have you, the 65nm c2d) for the sake of posterity, not penryn, as that is on a different process(45nm), with instruction tweaks.
