Available as the 3GHz Phenom II X4 940 and the 2.8GHz Phenom II X4 920, these new quad-core CPUs are AMD's first 45nm desktop processors, and they finally bring AMD in line with Intel's 45nm manufacturing process, used in its Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad and Core i7 chips.
Recent benchmarks of AMD's new 45nm Phenom II desktop CPUs reveal them to be very competitive when compared with Intel chips at similar prices, but is it enough to bring AMD back from the brink?
