Our test results make it clear, however, that Intel probably won\'t be able to catch up with AMD using processors based on the Netburst microarchitecture; it will have to wait for its new microarchitecture for that. Despite being produced at 90nm and having a much lower clock speed, the Athlon 64 FX-60 nearly ran the tables in our array of benchmarks, and it did so while consuming less power—both at idle and under load—than the Pentium Extreme Edition 955. The FX-60\'s performance dominance wasn\'t always deep, but it was very wide, with the top spot in only a few tests going to an Intel processor.

Setting records in Winstone, SYSMark and WorldBench, it\'s clear that for all of your desktop applications you can\'t get any faster than the Athlon 64 FX-60. Granted, the performance advantage over the X2 4800+ is generally in the 5 - 9% range so it\'s up to you whether or not the advantage is worth it.

By launching their new dual-core Athlon 64 FX-60 processor, AMD responded worthily to Intel’s Pentium Extreme Edition 955. There were quite a few cases when the new Intel CPU could probably shaken AMD’s leadership, however, the just launched AMD Athlon 64 FX-60 doesn’t leave the competitor even a single chance in almost all of them. Among the indisputable advantages of the newcomer from AMD targeted for the high-end pricing segment of the market I should list lower power consumption and heat dissipation than that of the competitor’s solutions. In other words, despite the recently announced 65nm Presler core from Intel, the overall situation in the market remains unchanged. CPUs with NetBurst architecture cannot be regarded as a successful alternative to contemporary AMD solutions. So, at least until H2 2006, when Intel is going to release a principally new Conroe processor, AMD will remain the leader by providing the fastest and most economical CPUs for the top-end market segment.
