    That would have been true pre-2006. Intel is infinitely better at the moment and has infinitely better stuff on the horizon.

    It would be nice if AMD had a clearly superior CPU to press Intel on innovation and pricing. The don’t; they have been staying competitive at price to performance by selling at lower prices than they would if they were competitive at computational power. This has eroded what margin they get per unit sold, AMD has been bleeding many millions of dollars every quarter for several years now and have additional concerns upcoming mostly with integrated graphics on the cpu die may crowd out GPU sales.

    You mean AMD “was” top of the crop…not anymore, Intel has had them beat for a while now.

    been a proponent of AMD for a long time but right NOW the top dog sadly not AMD.
    They lost the crown the moment Intel released the Core 2 series and now the i7 series.

    Phenom II & Athlon II is holding their own from a price/performance perspective but the crown of top performance is still in Intel’s court.

    Still using my trusty S939 A64 3000+ with Win7 Ultimate RC. :P
