Actually, they are trying to beat AMD. AMD is also developing a 4x4 solution.

GOO AMD and hurry up

AMDs '4x4' is 2x2. It's simply a dual CPU dual core platform.

4x4 allows you to use two dual-core processors on the same motherboard. So yes, it's two dual-core chips.

The Kentsfield id the 4-core processor, and the clovertown is the 8-core processor.

intel is just getting ready for the future... and im sure AMD is too. intel just lets so much more information out beforehand, AMD never advertises before theyve got the technology out...
i mean we knew about conroe WAY before it was out lol..

i mean we knew about conroe WAY before it was out lol..

But do you remember how much we knew about the P4 before it came out? Nothing helps sales like a little hype.

sry, i wasn't really into computers then, the way i am now.
in fact i started learning about a year and a half ago.
i know most of the fun stuff like hardware and overclocking pretty well... and i understand how things work inside a computer, but when it comes to older computers i know nada lol... not like i would have any use for the knowledge, i never deal with them anyways.
