AFAIK the Core Due 2 beats the shit out of the X2 at the moment, in every possible way (heat produced, price, watts eaten, and of course performance), but AMD has that "Reverse Hyperthreading" hidden feature for which they are currently making drivers for, which can possibly be a huge hit in some applications.
If I was informed right, it will allow both cores to be used with only 1 thread, so applications not supporting the dualcore function will be able to use the power of both cores.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
