Funny how AMD was the first to want to move away from the mhz based performance numbering style system and now Intel is about to follow suit.
interesting how AMD actually started the mhz based performance back when intel couldn't break the 700mhz limit and amd where selling 800mhz processors and damn proud of themselves for doing it, talk about PR.Originally posted by gonaads

i still don't see it that way, the fact AMD ran away when Intel started outgrowing them in MHZ don't mean nothing to me.
the fact is that if you look at any benchmark results and the only thing you change is the MB+Processor to a similar MB with a Intel processor you get about the same results.
so if its not MHZ (and i'm not saying it is) what is it and why wont AMD use it?
need i say "talk about PR" ?
So where is the big difference in PERFORMANCE you are talking about, i sure haven't seen it, enlighten me Sazar, show me where that PERFORMANCE is.Originally posted by Sazar
amd has been advocating using PERFORMANCE instead of mhz. intel always has advocated mhz above performance in their pr... thats my point...
I am not saying intel > amd or vice versa.. thats just the way I see it...

I heard one person call a Centrino a glorified Celeron. That was his opinion.
