Given the choice when getting a new PC would you choose Intel Core 2 duo or AMD Athlon 64bit x 2 CPU With 1000 and 1 benchmarks and both are similar cost to me - can you help.
Please don't go anywhere outside the CPU - I can do all the limiting factors of different I/O subsystems. On the other hand please don't offer example of number of instruction that can be processed in ring 0 of the CPU (for example).
I would go with AMD, because it offers quite enough performance except for those who like to live on the bleeding edge, and the AMD prices have come down a LOT now that Intel's newest CPUs have displaced AMD at the highest end of the performance scale. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
