A good reason not to choose AMD?
http://youtube.com/watch?v=XgOmMAasq...elated&search=
Old CPU's, granted, but it appears that Intel CPU's simply handle critical overheating much better than AMDs. Your thoughts? -- regards , Peter B. P. http://titancity.com/blog , http://macplanet.dk

If you plan on running your CPU without a heat sink and with thermal monitoring off in the O/S and BIOS, then Intel is definitely the way to go. You can also consider that Intel added thermal protection in the CPU because at that time (P-III P-IV) they ran so hot even with a heat sink that they were marginal in some cases. I run almost all Intel systems, but uncooled operation is not a factor in that choice. ;-) -- Bill Davidsen He was a full-time professional cat, not some moonlighting ferret or weasel.

AMD: trouble with 65nm process?
Debate surfaced on the Web this week over whether AMD is still struggling with its 65nm process technology. Some of AMD's highest performing processors are still made at the 90nm process node, months after the 65nm ramp The 65nm problem, according to one tech-minded poster on the Investor's Hub Website, is one that Intel dealt with in the transition to 45nm: electrical leakage on the chip. According to the writer, known only as "wbmw," this AMD white paper on desktop processor power from earlier this year shows that, in the poster's words, AMD's Athlon 2600 chips are "insanely leaky," and "may explain why AMD has not been able to ramp to 65nm. The leakage is killing them, and only their lowest leaking parts are able to hit 2.6GHz at 1.35V, and still maintain a reasonable power envelope." Though speculative, the post was credible enough that it was picked up by a number of Websites, including The Inquirer, which said, the AMD white paper "means that AMD is more or less binning 65nm parts based on leakage alone, and power consumption is the overriding factor limiting the new processor ramp." But here's what Dirk Meyer, president and COO of AMD had to say in last week's earnings call (transcript at Seeking Alpha, here ): "We're very happy with our 65-nanometer yields across all products, including Barcelona, so no issue there." But he went on to add, "The fact of the matter, Barcelona, while being an absolutely great product, is complicated and it's taking a little bit more design work than we anticipated..." AMD said it would begin shipping the Barcelona processor in August and OEM would have systems available for purchase in September.
