I find it strange why AMD did not release <2.2GHz A64 X2s? Maybe due to manufacturing issues?LX - Thursday, April 21, 2005 - link
How will the bandwidth limited X2 be affected by overclocking?Chunkee - Thursday, April 21, 2005 - link
Nicely done. The price will be a factor as usual. Does the performance gain justify the cost? For the enthusiast yes, but I will wait a bit. My 754 setup with a raptor still rocks plenty enough for me. The technology improvements are great. I will always be a big AMD Fan.jC
