Intel 45nm Processors Waiting to Clobber AMD's Barcelona?

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the surprise-processor-clobber dept.

DKC writes "Tech ARP's anonymous source claims that Intel is merely waiting for AMD to release their Barcelona processors before they clobber them with their 45nm die-shrinked processors. In fact, Intel is already producing these 45nm processors at one of their fabs in Arizona. AMD and Intel are in for a long and tough battle ahead. Should be an interesting one though."

    15 years you say? AMD wasn't even remotely competitive until 99 when the Athlon came out, hell in the early ninties when their "crushing of intel" began... according to you, they weren't even designing their own chips yet, they were just reverse engineering Intel's.

    Even since the Athlon came out, there have been may back and forths in price and performance.

    And FYI, I happen to buy which ever processor is better at the moment, which Is why I own some from both companies. I just hate fanboys like you.
