Phenom II 710 and Core 2 Duo E7400

To repeat, I and others have been trying to get the point across that some processors do some applications better and faster than others. You can't say one processor is better or faster than another without including the application. It is meaningless. Benchmark tests only show how the processors perform on those particular benchmarks, not on all applications in general.
 
So does the Phenom II 710 Tri-Core processor also beat the Core 2 Duo E8600 in processing power?

I would say so, core for core they are similar in power, just a little slower, but make up for it with the 3rd core, and the fact they overclock like beasts if i remember right.

I think if E8600 had 3 cores say godbye to Phenom x3 OK

Am I wrong????
 
Maybe that's the point though.

It takes an AMD Triple core processor to compete with an Intel Core 2. rofl

I like AMD for it's Value. There's no real value with Intel stuff. It's
overpriced, but it works well.

I have 2 AMD systems and one Intel. They all work well. They can
each play the same games (with the proper video card), they can
all open a browser.

It just depends what you're going to use it for.

If you're wondering about bragging rights and benchmarks, you'd
have to get the best Intel chip and put it against the best AMD chip.

Who wins then? Muahahaha lol jk jk
