Intel's new Presler core looks very promising and my give AMD cpu's some serious competition in gaming preformance in the near future.

Well the way I see it is Intel had to do something in this area and it looks like for now they did just that. It will be interesting to see how the new AMD's on the M2 socket will fair against this new Intel lineup.

Well I saw the benchmarks and AMD lead in that area is getting tighter and most games that i saw on the gmaing benchmarks saw Intel leading the way.

But wait until intel intros "VT" in their chips. AMD is going to have to respond to that or else they will be truly lagging behind intel in the enar future.
