Published by

I was thinking of buying a Intel Pentium 4 2.53GHz with the price drop! you can now pick one up for £210 inc Vat and out pops Motherboards.org with a new review AMD Athlon XP 2600+ vs Intel Pentium 4 2.53GHz! Here's a snip.

I hear it almost every time I am out consulting a job, someone will say is that AMD 2100+ a 2.1GHz CPU or a 1.53Ghz CPU with a complete blank stare on their face. This time we see AMD coming at us with a new .13 Micron solution called the 2600+ (actual clock speed 2.13GHz). AMD has slated this chip to be the killer of the Intel 2.53GHz P4, which is the current affordable high end CPU that dominates the market.
