"AMD has certainly made a valiant effort, but the aging Athlon 64 X2 line, which seemed like a juggernaut as recently as 15 months ago, just can't keep up. This resulted in the price of the company's fastest desktop CPU, the Athlon 64 X2 6000+ being trimmed to a low $241, while little has been seen of the company's QuadFX platform."

that was back in 2007, the rest is history.

can AMD pull through with Zen? what can we expect?

They better will, otherwise it doesn't look too good for them.
I do have faith in them though, especially since Keller was Zen's lead designer.

Hell, it can only be tremendously better than Bulldozer based architectures due to the die shrink and the switch from CMT to SMT.

I'd definitely take an 8 core ivy bridge at a good price point.
It's not like Intel improved their performance in the last 5 years

They have, but not by much. Power efficiency is the new meme.

The Athlon 64 X2 is still a fucking juggernaut.

I think that they made radeon technologies overly independent is worrying, worst case scenario samsung will buy it if CPU branch goes down.

Will AMD finally be able to get power efficiency high enough for them to matter in the mobile space? I love my A10-5750M, but holy shit that fucker almost melts the case's plastic off. Dat 4x 3,2GHz though.
