Readers of DigiTimes.com will be familiar with the major technical differentiation we now see between the twin poles of the PC processor world, AMD and Intel. AMD has broken free of a front-side bus architecture, integrating the memory controller on the CPU. AMD has its own interconnect, HyperTransport, albeit developed by an open consortium. AMD has adopted silicon-on-insulator technology in its chip production, Intel has not. These are just three examples of the many ways in which we now see healthy product differentiation in the processor market.
