AMD better at gaming? O RLY? Proof please. Core has virtualization too (though I doubt anyone here actually needs/uses it). |

QUOTE(goldfries @ Jun 15 2007, 06:32 PM) yeah. my mistake there. saw the Conroe core on CPU-Zs, assumed it was Core2Duo. Almost all Intel products are now Core based except Xeon MP (Tulsa) and Itanium. Tulsa's days are numbered once they get a Core based MP out w/ 4 independent FSB chipset (IIRC Tigerton). |

QUOTE(Faint @ Jun 22 2007, 01:44 AM) Sorry guys, I want make correction for my replied. AM2 can use AM2+, but cannot fully run all the feature of AM2+. In another way, AM2+ can run AM2 without problem. AM2+ is HT3. You can plug-in an AM2+ chip into an AM2 socket but lose HT3 functionality. Source from Xtrerview Also mobos on AM2+ have a split voltage plane: one for the IMC and one for the cores itself. AM2 mobos will have single shared voltage plane. Theoretically this should allow lower power consumption and better o/c control. |
