if you search teh intel vs amd 2007 thread, you'll see I predicted this ages ago.
Both the chip increases and amd's recovery

The next architecture looks promosing against nehalem,
but nehalem is already up at 3.2 Ghz
Wasn't the errata bug just some minor thing that needed extreme specific circumstances to be triggered? I fail to see how that hinders overclockability. And besides, not even +2ghz can save the phenom as it is currently, since its slower then the core 2 on a clock to clock basis. The fact that Core 2 can do +1ghz on stock setup isn't helping either.
