Anandtech - The AM2 Story

I eventually got more boards and BIOS updates that improved performance with AM2, but it was still lower than any of the current Socket-939 systems and I felt that it wouldn't really help anyone to put out numbers that weren't representative of what we'll be seeing in June. Today performance is a lot better than when I first looked at the AM2 platform, however it is still slower than a similarly configured Socket-939 platform. We're now around 3 months away from AM2's official launch and I'm beginning to worry. But it's what I saw in my most recent tests that may shed some light on what the AM2 story will be.
