BAD HARDWARE WEEK

The Conroe (and Kentsfields) have taken the performance crown from AMD and are currently on a roll but these will not be battling AMD's upcoming Phenom processors as Intel is preparing the new 45nm-built Yorkfield and Wolfdale CPUs. The models ready to be rolled out in Q4 2007 and Q1 2008 have already been revealed but what was unknown was the sum Intel will want for its updated line-up. Now, with the exception of the lonely dual-core E8300, the rest of the 45nm pack is priced and can already start causing AMD an extended headache.

BAD HARDWARE comment: Extended headaches? Have taken performance crown? WHAT A B...T !
AMD's server chips are lower priced . Even now, not to mention Q1 2008. You know, 12MB caches is not easy to manufacture, even in proposed 45nm. Thus, who will have headaches? Beside, AMD will boost its Phenom core clock up to 2,6 Ghz thus talking on performance advantage in desktop using Core 2 clock of 3Ghz is really ridiculous. Just opposite, Intel will be in headaches, both performance and price.
