Actually, according to PC magazine, the latest "Intel Core Duo" surpasses the fastest AMD. :(

I still prefer AMD.

The intel core duo is more powerful, but I suspect thats about to change, AMD has always been on top.

i heard about that somewhere, and he had to use something like liquid nitrogen (or some other F*ckin cold liquid) to cool it.

AMD has always been better than intel, always will. Their processors are not only good for games, but there good for everything. The only reason Intel may be a bigger company is because the a lot of people aren't tech savvy.

He couldn't clock an intel processor to 7 ghz without running his pc in the couldest part of the universe.

He used an injected liquid nitrogen cooling system and it was only at that speed for 14 seconds, he did it.
