Has nice overclocking potential and room to play with, and really, would you seriously see a difference between a 4Ghz Phenom II and a 4.xGhz Intel??

Ok, the intel will be faster in benches probably, but in real life world, would those small things really make THAT big a difference??

Looking at the current benchmarks I'd say no you won't see that big a difference. However, you guys should know that old school ideology of clock-clock comparison hasn't been realistic for years. Its more about architecture than actual clock speeds.

I agree with Rich on that

I know that is true, I just meant that, architecture aside, that you won't see much of a difference between an Intel core2quad @ 4Ghz and an AMD Phenom II @ 4Ghz, aside from benchmarks that is.

Both cpu's are so powerfull that the level they prform at, is a level that differences can only be seen in benchmarks.

This thread needs to die. It's 8 pages of nothing more than screenshots that mean next to nothing at this point in time. I know you're excited about this Fizur, but I think there is enough unconfirmed, unofficial, and speculative info in this thread already.
