Barcelona\Phenom

[TRDCorolla1]

The little graph I posted above gives you an idea on how it performs. There was no K9 by the way. So the K8 was used to compare to K10.

Well lets see it against a C2D.

Oh man, I think the C2D will give AMD a run for their money. Those specs, I will definitely look forward to seeing.

i think the intels new true quad thats coming out will beat amds
the 45 nm allows for much faster clock speed and overclockability
and intel will aslo upgrade there cpu design witch is great as is
its going to be close
but my bets with intel

I keep making the mistake that the Barcelona and Phenom are the same thing. I should clear it up that Barcelona is for Server setup using Socket 1207+ while the Phenom (Agena, not Barcelona) uses AM2+, HTT 3.0, and DDR2-1066 non-ECC RAM.

Whew, feels good to straighten that out.
