AMD Releases Dual-Core FX-60 Processor

AMD just released their new Dual-Core FX-60 processor which is basically two FX-55s strapped together. From the review:AMD now ships a dual-core CPU that's essentially the equal of Presler, while generating far less heat.
In terms of performance, however, this means that AMD no longer commands the same type of lead it once did when Intel only had the somewhat anemic 840 Extreme Edition. In fact, AMD is now more expensive, at $1,031, versus the 955 Extreme Edition at $999

My biggest problem is now that my children are grown, they want to build computer systems as much as I do. I have definitely passed on this passion to the next generation.

Enjoyed reading your post.
