Fundamentally, we think AMD will have the performance advantage through most of this year. But later in the year and into 2007 it will start to get interesting as Intel tries to go head-to-head with AMD again.
AMD's architecture was really a well-thought, modern, balanced approach. Intel has to catch up. They're getting there, but they're still struggling to get more performance.
Intel's philosophical emphasis is swinging from one extreme to the other. We haven't seen many details yet, but it may be even more efficient than the AMD chips, and Intel has been hinting at a lot of performance.
The Intel chipset is much more complex. What they don't talk about is that the cost of the chipset will go up significantly.
