    Looks like AMDs answer to the i5 to me. Things might get interesting.

    @Stndsh0: Like myself, you are a unapproved commenter. Don't worry, people will see the comments that are deemed worthy of approval by those with stars.

    If they don't approve it, thank them, it's probably better no one saw it anyway...

    That's too bad because although I have an Athlon system at home, I still have to update my mobo to accept DDR2. And now that the Athlon is the SUV of CPUs as far as power consumption, I think I'll have to move over to Core or i7.

    i have been toying with building a new rig and this gives me hope at doing it cheaply. i think my parents want a box they can put next to the tv as well. now do i have to overclock it to get good performance?

    @Nick: No you dont i have the CPU that is a step below this one(see my post below) in a HTPC and it preforms great with no overclocking. And you can get a whole system up and going with a really nice videocard for about $500.

    @Wireless Joe: Actually, yeah. You can pick up a Radeon 4830 under a $100 bucks and it's pretty good for medium quality 1680x1050 .

    Given the move toward palm devices becoming the primary computer for personal use, I think both AMD and Intel are in a race to change their business model. AMD is certainly in a much more problematic position, especially given Intel's efforts to develop processors for cell phones and other micro devices. That said, it is difficult to know which processor company will come out on top in the years ahead.
