Tom's Hardware End of Year CPU Roundup

Posted by michael on from the horses-under-the-hood dept.

Wister285 writes "Tom's Hardware has just posted one of their now famous CPU comparisons. Aside from looking at all of the nice graphs, they also compare the speeds of overclocked processors with their factory rated counterparts. It looks like the AMD chips just don't overclock as well as the Intel ones do, but when run at their specified level AMD almost always has the best price/performance ratio. Hopefully the upcoming year will be as promising in the processor sector as 2003 was!"

    Why did they completely leave out the VIA EPIA cpus?
    These seem to be a very interesting alternative especially for those who use their PC primarily for "e-mail and word processing".

    And for everyone who would like a silent PC.
