AMD's Athlon II X3 435 & New Energy Efficient CPUs: Killing Intel Below $90

Power Consumption
Thanks to its higher clock speed the Athlon II X3 435 draws a little more power than the 620 at idle, but uses a little less under load. The new energy efficient chips can't be touched. Personally I wouldn't spring for them, but if you're looking to upgrade a building full of machines and want as much power reduction as possible the e series can deliver.

Good, you have bought an Intel product, you will happy with it. I believe you will never buy AMD products, because their products are crap and can not win the benchmark.bupkus - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link
I have an AMD/ATI 4850 video card I bought a year and a half ago and it's working just fine. I don't expect Intel to have a competitive offering for a long time.maddoctor - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link
It will change with Larrabee. I believe you will buy Intel Larrabee, because simple choice will make you happy with Intel standards.maddoctor - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link
Yeah, I want it soon. Intel will crush them in the low end segment too. I want Intel own all PC Market if Intel have been successfully made AMD's cash empty. AMD is whine too much, so Intel must punish AMD until dead.bersl2 - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link

Ohh, I've never read anything from snakeoil yet so I was seeing him more like Intel's SiliconDoc.Eeqmcsq - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link
Boy, you're not kidding. Put those two together and there be fireworks.RubberJohnny - Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - link
It probably is snakeoil, he leaves out a couple of words here and there to make it sound like he comes from some non english speaking country instead of his mums basement...
