Will a 65nm AMD CPU at 2GHz perform better than a 130nm Intel CPU at 2.6GHz?
 

Will the fabrication process counter the lower clock speed, resulting in the processor being faster?

The die size obviously represents the size of the die.The die is pretty much semi-conductive material.

It affects mostly efficiency and temperature.

Athlons are usually better than pentiums

 

Its not a Athlon, its a Sempron.
