Default The Athlon 64 FX Overclocked to 3 GHz

It's nothing new that the Athlon 64 offers at least the same performance as the Pentium 4 while running at a far slower speed. That said, in the last two years power loss values have risen to such levels with Intel devices that the manufacturer is now vulnerable on two fronts.

With the introduction and progressive optimization of 90 nm manufacturing technology, AMD will now also be able to push the envelope beyond the psychologically important 3 GHz real clock speed mark. That is a mark that Intel can only just beat with its latest dual-core Pentium D.

Just because they are both doctors; it doesn't mean they have the same speed

For those THG staffers in California, 300kph is 186 Mph
