>>AMD has proven the clockspeed, no longer means you have fastest processor. <<

This has always been true. The way AMD speeded up their old processors was by reducing the number of clock cycles used in an instruction execution compared to others. AMD innovations are always almost all in house while Intel gets it buying it from others. Of course by now Intel owns pretty much every other CPU manufacturer out there except AMD and Power PC.
