It scores within 5% of the 2.0GHz Athlon X2 3800+ in 16/22 tests
Go on you can say it, it comes 2nd to it, the lowest spec X2, in 16/22 tests. There it wasn't so painful now was it
. 5% is all A64 has needed to kick Prescott out of the desktop market. So you think someone is going to rush to buy something which is 2nd best usually, has no 64-bit capability and is twice as expensive ? Yeah I've got it, sell it at a Mac, those suckers are easily mislead ! . PC crowd is a tad more discerning though. I wonder how much the L2 latency will drop further when it has to clock higher and also be 64-bit ?
