--------------------------------
AMD's Athlon 64 processor was undoubtedly the best CPU for enthusiasts in 2004. With a speedy on-die memory controller, future-proof 64-bit capabilities, and Cool'n'Quiet technology, there was a lot to love about the Athlon 64. Intel's newest Prescott Pentium 4 processors still had a few things going for them, including the creamy smoothness of Hyper-Threading and excellent video encoding performance, but those virtues weren't enough to overcome the chips' incredibly poor gaming performance, toasty temperatures, and gluttonous power consumption. --------------------------------
