You can look at it this way. If you have X$ to spend on a processor, and you look at AMD and Intel processors at that price, the AMD is going to be faster because AMD processors tend to be cheaper.

 

You do know your post doesnt make any sense right?

cheaper = faster?

last time I checked the Core i7 920 costs about $80 more than the new Phenom II 940 processor and virtually destroys it in all benchmarks.

 

 So... you're saying that the more expensive chip is the more powerful one?

 

benchmarks across the internet says yes. And it is barely more expensive.

Still I'm waiting to see which will be faster, Core i7 Duos or the Phenom IIs.

80 bucks isn't barely more expensive, especially when you can get a much better video card with that cash.

On top of that core i7 motherboards are expensive as fuck, and you have to go with DDR3.
