Well, for years after that I was a true diehard AMD fan. That is, until the tides recently turned and the tsunami of C2D arrived on the shores. Recently, Intel has been dominating the processor scene with its new line of Core 2 Duo's. Well, once again Intel has stepped up to the plate by literally stepping up the FSB from 1066 to 1333. This new line of CPU's have a model of Exx50 which represents the 1333FSB. This bump on the CPU will now match the Front Side Bus of some newer motherboards. The new processor under the microscope is the new Intel Core 2 Duo E6850, which is 3.0GHz, has 4mb of cache, and is using the 1333MHz system bus. With all these numbers floating around in my head, I just can't wait to test the processor.
