Intel’s Core 2 Duo regain No. 1

With the upcoming Core 2 Duo chip, Intel outperformed AMD (Advanced Micro Devices) chips in several independant tests. AMD has been on the top for several years especially with its highest performing processor chip Athlon FX-62.
CNET.com, which like CNET News.com is published by CNET Networks, said “the Core 2 Duo chips include not only the fastest desktop chips on the market, but also the most cost-effective and among the most power-efficient.” Most reviewers evaluated three chips that will formally launch later this month: the Core 2 Extreme X6800, the Core 2 Duo E6700 and the E6600. The Extreme version runs at the fastest clock speed and costs a lot more than the E6700 and E6600, but it will be the most powerful desktop PC chip on the planet when it is released.
It looks like AMD has to design new processors to compete with Intel. With this healthy competition, I can’t imagine how fast the future generations of PC would be.
