My look at the future
Saturday, July 29th, 2006Monday Intel officially unveiled its newest line of processors, the Core 2 Duo. It looks like Intel will also be launching Merom, the mobile variant of Conroe, during the middle of August. If I remember correctly Merom was about 25% more efficient, clock for clock, when compared to the Core Duo. With healthy price cuts, strong performance, and great overall value it looks like Intel’s new line of processors not only plan to compete with AMD but are willing and able to completely bury AMD. The fall will probably be very bleak for AMD fanboys as Intel processors start crushing all previous world records held my the faithful K8 from AMD but just remember your time will come. It took Intel nearly 3 years to catch up, I am sure the young guns over at AMD will have something fresh to serve up in about 6 months.
