Yes! I obviously missed that key piece of data...#13, 14, 20.

So my other takeaway is Phenom II can overclock pretty well. An AMD processor over 3.5 Ghz w/o drastic measures, unprecedented.

But my synthesis of Kentsfield being relevant...the original C2Q has stood the test of time.

Whoever wrote that MSI slide needs some serious fact check. That's a PEG slot, not a "VGA" slot. If it were really a VGA slot, then at x4 speeds it should be enough to drive 640x480 resolution with all the details up?

Most people would probably stick with the IGP, but the PEG slot running at x4 is a concern. Some video cards may not function at x4 and drop all the way down to x1.

You know what's weird? Amongst some of my uppity college friends, VHS is actually making a comeback! Seriously, those 19-20 year-olds need to stop pretending like they actually knew what the 80's were like.

Flipped thru the Greek AMD v. Intel. Can't read or speak Greek but bar graphs with an English subtitle that says "Lower is better" or "Higher is better" makes actual text superfluous.

I was disappointed there was no true clock-for-clock comparison...or maybe there was and I missed it. Anyhow, nothing new in the article, except Kentsfield shows it is still relevant, and very much alive despite being available for 2+ years.
