wbmw, I expect Conroe to beat K8DC in IPC. By a lot.

By an awful lot, according to INTEL.

I think that AMD could produce higher frequency X2s but I don't
see any reason to do so at this time. It's hard enough trying
to get consumers to cough up a grand for the 4800 and the faster
DC Opterons are not that far away from Itanium prices.

It seems to me that they are focusing on producing Turions and
lower-power Mobile chips at the higher frequency ranges.
