AMD has two counters to Conroe
@ 2006/05/27The FX-62 parts seem to be taking not much more than 100W, so with a slight voltage bump, you could get to 3.0GHz with 3.2 being a stretch if you cherry pick. That would put an FX-62++ up against a 2.97/1066 XE, will it be enough? Will Lassie get home in time to tell mommy that Timmy fell down he well?
Either way, the war goes on, in 1S, Intel put the stake in the ground, time for AMD to react. A few years ago, when we announced the P4EE for Intel, I had a meeting with AMD a few hours later. I asked the assempled reps what they thought of the new Intel gaming chip. The person sitting in the chair looked up and with a really unconcerned look on his face said 'So?' The next three or so years pointed out that he was correct.
