There's a link to the benchmarks...but for the lazy asses, <A HREF="http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=38414" target="_new">here.</A>

Turns out it's not just a die shrink! Oh yeah, these are only Winchester, no San Diego or Troy yet.

Oh my CPU Mark 99 from ZD, I thought that was obsolete back with 1GHz systems. I haven't used that since overclocking Celeron 300a's on 440BX boards.

Impressive performance nonetheless...there's rumor of it only dissipating 50ish watts of heat too. Anyway, it looks like this might offer more performance that initially expected, unlike with Prescott.

Yeah, the the Prescotts blow it away in High Temperature Scores. :wink:

Ya theres a rumor out too that the Intel has a chip at 2ghz higher IPC and also build on 0.09u about 45 watts of heat output at that.

whats IPC? (I know / think it has something to do with effiency)

And i hope that they don't and it is only that...a rumor.

AMD deserve a bigger market share, becuase in general they produce the better CPU (just my opinion)

I'm hoping that the 90nm temps are not far off the Prescotts, I would like to see AMD's stunt with the Prescott survival kit backfire on them, would be a laugh :D

why would you want that? then we would have TWO processors that suck



you probably just wanna see Intel do well.. face it, they arent right now

Lol, you got the wrong idea. Think about it, both companies have problems with 90nm and heat, what happens? They both try and fix it. If no fix is found, then more technology is developed, therefore pushing the whole microprocessor industry further. Think before you post.

actually it would be better if only one side had problems in one area or another. the reason being that if thats so, that puts more rpessure on that ocmapny to solve the problem and advance ahead of its competitor, which drives inovation. The more pressure the ebtter. if boht sides have the same problems, yes it will still be pressure to suceed, but it wouldnt drive them quite as hard, and in the past has lead to both deciding to let things stay as they are for now, more content to wait.

so i hope amd's process goes well, it cna only spark a more agressive and innovative response from intel if they want to get back in it.

Yeah, I guess so, Intel have a lot of cash, no reason they won't be able to find a solution if AMD pull it off. Although, With the dual core processors appearing, who knows what will happen.

ohh no i was just told :((

screw you id rather have something working NOW, rather than sit and read about it being released 6 months from now on some german webite.. lets see now, reading about some new advanced processor that runs fast and cool, or how about actually being able to buy one?

Ok, I put down an AMD processor by saying it would be fun if they had the same trouble, and it would advance the industry. But I should have known the rule:

"Put down Intel all you want, but don't even try it against AMD"

You know what I mean. Someone wishes success for AMD, fine. Someone doesn't wish success for AMD, he's an Intel fanboy. I hate it when this happens, so just leave it.

IPC is instruction per clock, A64 running at 2.xx ghz can compete/beat P4 at 3.xx because they do more work every clock cycle...

That 2ghz higher Ipc chip could be describe as ummm let me think Dothan?

Asus P4P800DX, P4C 2.6ghz@3.25ghz, 2X512 OCZ PC4000 3-3-3-8, Leadtek FX5900 w/ FX5950U bios@500/1000, 2X30gig Raid0
