It's all fair.
AMD is far superior in gaming.
Intel beats AMD in most of the other tasks.
Intel consumes a hole lot more and generates more heat.
And i dunno why AMD fanboys complain. A X2 doesn't overclock too well, and even if it did,it wouldn't have change the situation.
Also,you may consider testing the FX-57 alongside is in AMDs favour cause of its high clock( so it does much better in single threaded opertations).
A 10+ review.
The sad thing is that this is one of the last Intel proc. on netburst and we won't be seeing this for much longer.
The price might also be considered an issue BUT both AMD and Intel have this ridicolous priced CPUs.
A good ending to a not so great series. It finally manages to overall beat the AMD X2 4800 performance wise though it still has major flaws and weaknesses .
That said,i'm waiting for Conroe. Then will see some Intels performance per watt!
And i also await the M2 socket. Hopefully, it'll boost up the clock, or at least decrease prices to current 939s (notsaying they are high but lower prices are always welcomed!).
