Everything I have read previously states that gamers will not see any benefit from switching to Nahalem until it comes out with a higher clock speed.. Has anyone heard anything differently? After listening to the presentation it seems that the higher memory bandwidth would give a performance...
I can tell you for a fact the reasons Dell went to AMD for servers (I work at Dell in the enterprise department):
#1 Customers asked for them.
#2 AMD could finally supply enough chips to meet our demand.
Thats it, no big conspiracy there. Everything associated with enterprise products...
