sure no problem

the way I see it:


  • phenom2 = similar performance with Core2 (5% in both directions)
  • phenom2 does have a small die size, much smaller then i7 so they can sell it cheaper then any i7
  • phenom2 uses a much cheaper platform then i7
  • phenom2 isn't a competitor for i7
  • phenom2 is a very nice midrange cpu, low watts, low temp
  • people can finally start choosing amd again, because their performance really sucked with agena


even though i have a Intel E8400, I really like to buy a deneb if overclocks are good, i don't care about stockspeeds
