Slightly faster??? Did you see the benchmarks? When a solo, yep thats right just one, FX-51 is beating a Dual G5 system in a Quake III benchmark by 41 FPS, that is an ass raping not a marginal victory.
As for the updates its expected for AMD and intel, intel will be answering the 64bit proccessor of AMD with one of their own, so the speculation on which will be faster should probably be saved for another time.
