By the time K8l arrives in 2008. Intel will have the 45nm process and Nehalem will devourer K8l . I guess if you sue intel they will turn on you and show the world that in reality your really not a player. Yes AMD had A64 but thats old tech and AMD's moment in the sun has come and gone . Nehalem will put the final nail in that couffin in 2008.

This part was easy . Based on the delinery of AMDs last architecural advanment (Hammer). I have no reason to believe that AMD can deliver the goods on time and in quanity. Amds 65nm process late also.

Based on intels last architecural advancement 65nm tech on time and in wonderful shape. Merom ahead roadmaps and one ass kicking cpu.

No magic involved just a study of the last advances by both companies. Hell based on Intels performance I have know reason to believe they won't believer on time or even ahead of time.

Based on Amds past performance. I have no reason to believe they will deliver on time. Why should I ? I see K8L dual core as being delivered to retail no eariler than 2008.

So basically off one benchmark and your GUESS as to when K8L will be delivered you are making conclusions. I'd still like to have a crystal ball too :)
 
Logic and talk are 2 differant things . We will see in one year .

For the record before the same nay sayers about Conroe get the idea in thier heads. I thought I should mention that INTEL will be going to a new socket in the middle of 08.

Nehalem will have IMC and what ever else Intel has up its sleeve.

I thought I would bring this up now to point out . The same nay sayers of the conroe will say Oh! Great another socket from intel but it is these same people who point to the rest of us the meritts of IMC . So when intel brings IMC in the form of Nelalem they will attack the fact that another new M/B will be required. But it should also be pointed out that DDR3 is coming to intel in 07. So yet another new M/B will be required. Amd will also go to DDR3 so yes another new M/B will be required for AM3. The price we pay for progress.

Based on AMD's past record of delivery . My guess is as good as anyone's maybe better as I base my estimations off past performance of amd delivering a new processor tech off past records. Not off of whats in my wantin desire for one company to outdo another.
