Message #89617 from Charles R at Oct 6 1999 7:47PM PB, <It looks like Coppermine will compete quite well with a "seventh generation core". I wonder what Willamette will do? > I am not sure what you and Paul are talking about. From Kash's post on the AMD thread, looks like Tench is confirming JC's rumored CuMine spec numbers. If that is true, here is what you have: CuMine 600: Specint - 29; Specfp - 25 Athlon Pro 700: Specint - 37; Specfp - 42 The miss penalty in CuMine will increase as core speeds ramp because of the lower hit rates due to smaller cache. So, expect the comparisons to get more in favor of Athlon as speeds ramp up. Athlon doesn't even have a on die cache, yet..... And, of course, we haven't factored in the potential MHz advantage. Chuck Let me get this right... Now that AMD folks are seeing (even though not officially announced scores) what CuMine is potentially scoring... now the benchmarks don't mean anything! After all... something better (larger full speed cache, more compiler optimizations, etc) is "just around the corner" "... who cares about SPEC now... we'll stay ahead in MHz!" back to the ol' song...
