anand: the move to AM2 and DDR2 memory looks like it will yield far too little in performance improvements to keep AMD competitive in the upcoming marketplace.

I find it hard to believe that anyone would have expected big gains from AM2 as AMD processors haven't been bandwidth starved for some time and latency isn't that much of an issue. The real question is just what AMD has in mind for all this new bandwidth?

To me AM2 seems to be the ante to play the next game.
