Just read... the AMD just had a major victory over Intel. This may be one of the last final blitz attacks. AMD has released a CPU that reaches 2666.67Mhz not overclocked... imagine if it was overclocked.

AMD just reclaimed itīs rightful place as the CPU having the most Ghz.

I must point out that this may not be true though, unfornately....

Considering I'm yet to find anything about it with google, I'm not too convinced.

Unfornately, I have found out it is fake. The screenshot of the screen claims it is an XP 3000+, yet the screenshot of the CPU claims it is an Palamino 3000+. Sorry, it isnīt real.

AMD still kicks serious Intel butt.

I don't think it is real... I can't find it mentioned anywhere on AMD's website. It is fake.

That's bull----, an Athlon XP running at 2667MHz is more like an Athlon XP 3600+. 2.1-2.2GHz is more like the speed of an Athlon XP 3000+.

Clearly the person who made the hoax doesn't know anything about Math.

Well its too bad anyways... AMD still kicks major Intel --- with its XP 2000+ processor.

I still dont understand how the fastest cpu ever (overcloked from p4 2.2ghz) is only 3.7ghz, cant they make something the size of a swedish elphant which goes at 5 gazzilion ghz?

Correction: Intel could be overclocked to 3.7Ghz but it sucks because its chipset architecture is ----ty.
