I don't think that AMDs designs are particularly bad... an FX-8350 can go toe to toe with a higher end i5. Of course that's without the power savings of a newer process.

I do hope that AMD comes up with something with a single-core performance competitive to an i7 with a power envelope in the ballpark.

>single-core performance competitive to an i7

best AMD chip cant even compete with cheapest Pentium(celeron) when it comes to IPC

But it will support 32GB of ECC ram and more than two simultaneous processes. ;-)
