and PRH99, when MaximumPC built their Ultiment gaming Rig in one of their previous issues, they went with the Core Duo, and it Kicked the pants off all the AMD rigs they had in every benchmark, which surprised and saddened them, the AMD Fanboys they are.
Yeah, this is true, but with Core 2 Duo, you mean. Cause Core Duo's were designed as mobile processors.

Anyways, you're news were already outdated. Benchmark tests shows that Athlon64 FX beat the crap out of Pentium D. But after Core 2 Duo, it just went below.
