Quote:If you want the best processor on the market there is little doubt that it is going to be based on the AMD Athlon64 architecture. If you are a true gaming enthusiast you're best off going with an Athlon64/FX processor, those of you who need a multimedia powerhouse should stick to the dual core AMD Athlon64 X2. For the answers to "why" that is, keep on reading... Truth be told, the move towards dual core processors was made out of necessity due to Intel and AMD hitting a roadblock with manufacturing technologies. The old method of a "die shrink and ramp up speed" has reached its limits, so a new game plan was hatched where two CPU cores were the next logical step up.
