AMD Challenges Intel

AMD 64 Opteron

We Challenge Intel to Dual-Core Duel

In April 2005, AMD introduced the world’s first x86 dual-core server microprocessor.
Since then, we’ve on every major industry-standard benchmark for x86 servers.
Now Intel says they’re a contender. So let’s settle it.

In the spirit of fair and open competition, AMD challenges Intel to a duel…a dual-core duel!

It’s time to find out which x86-based dual-core architecture best meets customer needs the old fashioned way: a live shoot-out measuring server workloads and energy consumption.

And AMD is ready to meet anytime in 2005. To give Intel time to release their “optimal” dual-core processors.

Industry-standard benchmarks. Obscure benchmarks need not apply.
Volume commercial processors only.

And may the best chip win.

From this advertisement I think AMD is pretty serious to intiate the cold war. Let’s hope now Intel accepts the challenge.
