Busy day for processor announcements today. AMD introduced a new desktop A64 3400+ speedking, which makes it the first 3400 rated processor on the market, coming out ahead of any Pentium 4 3.4Ghz processor. Anandtech actually calls this A64 3400+ "the death of the FX-51". http://www.anandtech.com/cpu/showdoc.html?i=1941 Amd also announced it will begin shipping mobile Athlon 64's in the 2800+, 3000+, and 3200+ rating ranges. Will have to see how these compare to the power consumption of Pentium M processors. http://www.crn.com/sections/BreakingNews/dailyarchives.asp?ArticleID=47023 Yousuf Khan >> Stay informed about: New desktop and mobile Athlon 64's announced
