In recent years they have been somewhat outperformed by Intel's offerings and only pulled back some ground with their introduction of the Phenom II and Athlon II ranges. As a result of this i have a chip from each range here to put up for review. The first chip on test is AMD's Phenom II X2 555 Black Edition dual core - the next (an Athlon II model) will appear in the next couple of days.
