Intel’s Core architecture has certainly stirred up the CPU industry. It has been nearly two years that the CPU giant had to take a back seat to AMD in the performance ring. While clock speeds did manage to hit a high of 3.8GHz with their 580 Pentium 4 CPU, it just couldn’t beat a Athlon 64 clocked at 2.2Ghz - that’s 1.6GHz slower and it still managed to kill the highest clocked Pentium 4 CPU on the market.
