Benchmarks:

Even when only clocked with 1GHz, the AMD Athlon 2000+ clearly beats the Atom single-core and comes close to the Atom dual-core. If AMD can pull out a single-core CPU which clocks with 1.30GHz it can clearly beat even the Atom dual-core. The AMD Athlon 64 X2 3400e is in an entirely different league, it's like fusion-drive against hyper-drive.

Atom 330 dual-core 1.60GHz for reference:

AMD Athlon 64 2000+:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 3400e single-threaded:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 3400e:
