[citation][nom]modtech[/nom]As the article stated, Intel is much much bigger than AMD. They have more funds for research, engineers, manufacturing facilities, marketing... you name it. Direct competition in such a situation is futile. BTW jimmy you're slightly wrong about AMD being "stubborn" about native quad cores. You think they wouldn't have preferred the simpler and cheaper route? This is AMD we're talking about you know. The problem was the way the K8's memory controller connects to the system, you can't tape two of those together and make it work. As for annonue's comment hold on a second and think, that's a pretty stupid thing to post. The quad to buy is still the aging Q6600, which is somewhat disappointing as I expected a full cache 45nm quad to replace it at the same price.[/citation]
Sorry, but the dual IMC thing is just a cheap copout, plain and simple. Ruiz opened his big mouth and proclaimed naieve quadcores as the second coming of christ. All the engineers in that company knew he was stupid to say it, but it's not the engineers who own the golden parachutes, is it?
