Hello Again,
Futurelooks settles a little sibling rivalry...
AMD Platform Showdown - Spider vs. Dragon vs. Dragon Reloaded
Lessons were learned and AMD has since set its sights on the
performance desktop computing market with its latest platforms. Spider
was their first platform launched back in late 2007. However, early
benchmarks already doomed it to not really being a threat to Intel in
terms of performance. Thus the hoopla was downplayed and the Spider
entered the room quietly without anyone knowing it was there. Of course
plenty of people tried to step on it because it was supposed to be the
mythical Core Duo Killer. So the marketing message for Spider ended up
being “Performance per watt”. That’s OK if you’re a lightbulb but not
when you’re building a top end gaming system or workstation.
