Traditionally, AMD processors excel in PC Gaming, while Intel Processors excel in productivity applications and multitasking. This brief comparison of AMD and Intel processors holds true, for the most part, with today's single and dual core processors
In case anyone was wondering, the dual core processors manufacured by both AMD and Intel will NOT improve system performance while running games. That is, until dual-core processors are taken into account by game designers.

yup, when multi threaded games are introduced it will be a very big advantage to have dual cores.

Not exactly, the venice core has SSE3 instructions, whilst the san diego doesn't. So if programs supported SSE3 then the venice would do better than san diego, otherwise nope. The leap from 512KB of cache isin't that huge it seems.. then again, the leap from non to with SSE3 instructions ain't that big either. Mainly just words on paper to the average computer user.

they do actually. the FX-57's and some FX-55's are San Diego, and have SSE3ThE_MarD said:

but AMD Opterons and X2's have "hyperthreading" as well. The Opteron 8xx series has 8 threads, the 4xx series has 4 threads. The X2 is multithread as well.

yeah, the 800 series Opterons are really powerful. although they consume a lot of power themselves.
