Completely different processor architecture (design) and what they are meant to do. Consider the difference in the complexity of the operating systems they are meant to use. The Tegra or Kal-El would not be happy running Windows 7, whereas a C2D would do it all day without any trouble. Cache size is hugely different, as is clock speeds, pipeline etc.

nVidia claims that it will beat the C2D at one test. Let's have them both do a series of benchmarks that are widely accepted for PC performance measurements before saying that conclusively.

If you did a little Googling, you would come up with this article which came out a while ago. It explains the differences nicely. Also remember that the C2D architecture is quite old, and Sandy Bridge chips have not been compared yet.

Why nVidia
