New Processors

[georgegeorge]

It has been 7 months since the AMD 2X where announced without any real advances since. You have to think that new processors are due soon.

You have to admit that there has been little progress in the last 7 months.

Well, it's been just as long in the Intel camp, and AMD doesn't take a dump unless Intel tells them to.

 

[georgegeorge]

I agree that it has been just as long in both camps. But you have to think somethings around the corner -- I assume that they are not just sitting around twittling their thumbs.

Maybe that switch to DDR2 in amd will give us some hueg releases.

the best thing about a whole new platform from AMD: huge ass price cuts on everything else

....by huge ass, I mean slight

probably, and the 5000+ is going to be a 2.6ghz dual core part.
