That computers RAC in Rosetta is 3855!!!! For one machine!!!!!
I saw a video at AMD's website, provided by a link from here or the AMD Zone, that talked about AMD's Quad core. It said that AMD's Quad core will be faster, because intel's quad is just 2 C2Ds stuck on the same die. AMD's will be a completely new processor with each core connected via their direct connect technology. They also said two other things, which I can't remember because I saw the video long ago, that made it faster. AMD will continue to lead until intel releases its octi core around 2008 which won't just be 4 C2Ds stuck on the same die. If i find the video i will post it.
If you look at the intel quads there is a L1 cache and 2 L2's this should prove to be the bottleneck that AMD is trying to work around
You know these things go back and forth. Just be patient - AMD will have an answer.
