Here we go again, racing for the cores, just like the megahertz race. Lets hope this one comes out better for the consumer.

It’ll never end victor.I’ve heard that intel is planning a 16 core CPU already.i wonder what we can do that.Even a quad core can’t take full advantages of 4 cores. Only some handful of applications support multicore support.Even a game like Crysis is only capable to support 2 cores.
