*waits for people to tell him how THG crippled the AMD setup*



I'm not enough of a Conroe or AM2 buff to see where the bias is in it, but it was an interesting read...

Didn't AT get their 6800XE and 6600 higher than that? I forget now, & i'm too lazy to check EDIT: THG was using stock cooling tho, not the Tuniq...

That really seems to be the ceiling for 90nm AMDs these days tho, around that 3-3.1Ghz mark...bring on 65nm

Hmmm, let's see....a C2D, which is known to be faster clock-for-clock, soundly defeats a lower-clocked AFX. This is news?

I don't think that's really the point, which was to take the two flagship processors and see what could be done withe them on air with stock cooling...
