Intel Makes Performance Claims, AMD Rebuffs Them


As might be expected, Advanced Micro Devices doesn"t think much of Intel"s performance claims for its upcoming Conroe and Merom products.

"It"s driven by the fact that they can"t talk about their current products, because everybody knows their current products aren"t very good," said Henri Richard, AMD"s chief sales and marketing officer, in an interview with CNET News.com late Friday.

Richard was responding to a prediction from an Intel executive that the company"s chips scheduled for the second half of the year will deliver a 20 percent improvement in performance over comparable AMD products scheduled for release in the same time frame.
