Well I know these have been out for a rather lengthy while. But i recently went on a hosting website and saw they had 3 core AMD processors, and this 8 core intel atom: http://ark.intel.com/products/77988/Intel-Atom-Processor-C2758-4M-Cache-2_40-GHz
What on earth... Intel actually made an 8 core ATOM? That's got the same amount of cores as my I7-5960X!
