If they perform to the level of core 2, it would be interesting to see intel's response

2. 
I doubt Intel will respond to AMD with anything as these two CPU are more expensive than the mid-level core2duo and *probably* just do as good as a identically priced C2D at best....
not to mention that they won’t have much room for O/C.

"This listing reflects pricing for direct AMD customers in 1000-unit tray quantities, except when designated as PIB quantities." - these are PIB prices, not 1000u quantites prices

"The modernized AMD Athlon 64 X2 dual-cre central processing units have thermal design power (TDP) of 89W, much higher compared to TDP of competing Inter Core 2 Duo microprocessors that also contain two processing engines."

Are you Intel PR or what?

Any knowledgeable guy out there knows AMD and Intel TDP's are NOT comparable. Intel list _average_ consumption while AMD lists _maximum_ achievable one.

Also at IDLE(CPU spends 95% of time at) even 125TDP X2's are far more efficienty than Core2 Duos.
