Until the full reviews by multiple sites are done using RETAIL chips, I reserve final judgement. I am not a fanboy, and not in denial, since there is nothing to deny.

haha, what an idiot.
Conroe will beat AMD in desktop performance for 2006/2007.
There IS NO QUESTION.
Fanboys, put your helmets down.
Here is the reality, clock for clock, intel is faster.
Clock for clock, conroe scales MUCH better.
For gaming, etc. Conroe owns fx-60/62
Conroe extreme edition (2.93ghz/1066fsb/HT) are overclocking to 4ghz on air.
Just look at 3Dmark01/05/06 for right now.
Amazing how some people can post so much crap, and be so ignorant. It is like the intel fanboys that were talking trash on AMD athlon 64 a year ago.

and how did you arrive at this conclusion? do you have any proof? Please, don't post if all you have is fanboism and no proof.

Has anyone read this?
Does anyone believe this?
I wanted to get a CONROE chip but now I'm not sure!
Not a rehash from this idiot again!!
:|No need for personal insults!
Mr. Vain, I dont think that was in insult towards you but to the person in that link you provided. this topic has been discussed a million times, I know you didnt know. But every person agrees that whats on Sharikou's page is PURE BLOGNE!, He's possibly the biggest amd fanboy ever.
the results could be in front of him, and he would still find a way to deny its authenticity.
Pay not attention.
His logic is something like.....
Because my civic gets 45MPG as opposed to your Corvette z06, my civic is faster.
the point is there is no logic in his comments.

While his grammar is of a questionable nature The current benchmarks suggest that what he says is true. That is his proof. Anand says a 2.66Ghz Conroe is faster than a 2.8Ghz X2 in all scenarios. That is enough information to make an educated hypothesis which states that Intel will be faster than AMD this year, or at least until AMD comes up with a response.

No - it won't.Originally posted by: Gary Key
for the first time in a few years it will be a hard decision on deciding what CPU will provide the best performance.

Well.. the problem is .. the Conroe setup was by Intel and it was blackboxed..
if you search Google, many/many sites have questioned Anand's article, emailed/asked Anand and Intel, and have not gotten an answer from either.
A better educated guess would be to derive a conclusion from something that existed : since Intel has gone back to P3 architecture, clock for clock it should pretty much match up with AMD. The advantage of 65nm process would allow higher clock speed / lower power usage.

Its not exactly P3 architecture. Well intel had to have something in that black box and whatever it was I want one of them ;-)

Wait & See? Why?
FACT: Core Duo is already faster/equivalent to K8, clock-for-clock.
FACT: Core 2 Duo [Conroe] builds on the current Core architecture and improves it. In layman terms, I'm pretty sure the '2' oughta mean something.
Even if Conroe doesn't wipe the floor with AM2, we can atleast be sure it's going to be like the X1900XT/7900GTX situation.
Party A will use Benchmark Set A to claim Prouduct A is faster, Party B will use Benchmark Set B to claim Product B is faster. There may be no conclusive winner, and you really can't wrong with either product.
However, I'll still bet my money that there WILL be a conclusive winner this time (like K8 was last time), and it will be Intel.

Read all the conroe benchmarks and you'll see pure conroe dominance clock for clock and even under lower clockspeed.
Not really (good guess, tho' ). Core 2 shall have 64-bit support, but Core 2 also succeeds the P4, which already has 64-bit. The 2 indicates a new family of processors, built around ideas going back to the Pentium M / Core Duo / Core Solo family. 80% of the new microarchitecture was redone.Originally posted by: beggerking
"2" may be 64bit support?

a review please. .
intel section....-_- right.. like I'm going to find unbiased opinion there...

Let us not make statements that will make us look silly later. Give Intel the benefit of the doubt. I'm a AMD user, but Intel is still a good line.
