Wow, those are some really strong numbers. Intel took the challenge from AMD, went back to their corner, and really came out swinging!

hehehe...

well i think that AMD won't just sit back and do nothing, i'm still waiting if AMD would make something more challenging to Intel... maybe....

thanks for the comment...(^^,)

Intel's got some <A href="http://engadget.com/tag/nehalem">Nehalem</A> chips floating around Computex, and the crew from Anandtech manged to snag a couple and run some benchmarks. As you'd expect, Intel's latest and greatest put up pretty solid numbers, performing most operations faster than a 3.2GHz Penryn chip -- while only clocked at 2.66GHz. When the Penryn chip was clocked at 2.66GHz, Nehalem ran 20 to 44 percent faster, mostly due to insanely fast memory access speeds and Hyper Threading. Sadly, due to a wonky test mobo, Anandtech wasn't able to test performance when paired with a GPU, and there were some memory latency issues -- which hopefully means Nehalem will be even faster when it's out for real. Your move, AMD.</DIV><BR />[Via <A href="http://www.aeroxp.org/2008/06/anandtech-gets-their-solid-snake-on-procures-nehalem/">AeroXperience</A>]</DIV><DIV class="postmeta"><UL class="postnav"><LI class="readlink"><A href="http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/intel/showdoc.aspx?i=3326&p=1" class="related-link"><STRONG>Read</STRONG></A> <A title="Open in a new window" and="" target="_blank" class="icon" href="http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/intel/showdoc.aspx?i=3326&p=1"><IMG src="http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.engadget.com/media/icon-external.gif" /></A></LI><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;"><A title="Permanent link to this entry" rel="bookmark" href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/05/intels-nehalem-bechmarked-2-66ghz-faster-than-3-2ghz-penryn/">Permalink</A></LI><li style="margin-left:16px;padding-left: 0px;"><A title="Send this entry to a friend via email" href="http://www.engadget.com/forward/1217218/">Email this</A></LI><LI class="commentslink"><A title="View reader comments on this entry" href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/05/intels-nehalem-bechmarked-2-66ghz-faster-than-3-2ghz-penryn/#comments">41 Comments</A></LI></UL><P class="filed-under"><STRONG>Filed under:</STRONG> <A href="http://www.engadget.com/category/desktops/">Desktops</A></P><P class="posttags"><STRONG>Tags:</STRONG> <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/bechmarks/">bechmarks</A>, <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/computex/">computex</A>, <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/computex+2008/">computex 2008</A>, <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Computex2008/">Computex2008</A>, <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/intel/">intel</A>, <A href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/nehalem/">nehalem</A></P></DIV><DIV class="quigoads"><FORM target="" action="" method="get" name="qas_dfp_frm" id="qas_dfp_frm"><INPUT type="hidden" value="" name="ie52_mac_only" /></FORM></DIV></DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/C9FF7A6C-533F-4243-B0AD-62F0F796578B/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
