INTEL i7 and AMD PHENOM COMPARISON

TECHNOLOGY - INTEL i7 and AMD PHENOM COMPARISON

Intel and amd proccessor generation newest issue, how the characteristics of both proccessor is, how can a comparison between both? let's see together [this is also reference from web that has issued a trusted his money clearly, I am not write this based on the results of the experiment my self:)]

Before you see the end result, it's good how you see the first results based on the characteristics of comparison and benchmark etc. ok ....

TRANSISTOR
INTEL i7 731 million transistor board size 263 mm2 45 nM
AMD PHENOM 463 million transistor board size 283 mm2 65 nM

From the fourth benchmark there are significant differences .. [who know is the right one...]

CONCLUSION
AMD back in the game business.
Phenom x4 9850 Black Edition can not always in line with the Core 2 Quad Q6600 or Core 2 Duo E8500, but only approach?.

AMD may be on the approach to the price "in accordance" with the quality .. halt to the AMD Clocker and gamers .. but again .. I yaaah they have a special budget to compare between Intel and AMD processors ..

maybe seek ways for the AMD maniac is proccessors with the purchase price is affordable but has the quality of the more than Intel Processors with the same price.

Hopefully useful ...
