PB, They did say that the integer unit runs at 3.0 GHz. IT CERTAINLY DOES! Little xtors humming along with incredibly low inverter delay. I HAVE TO EAT MY HAT ON THAT ONE. Feel free to be skeptical about the performance gain. With no benchmarks available yet, this is reasonable. The integer unit consists of many stages, including instruction fetch, decode, dispatch, operand loads, execute, writeback, etc. The only piece of the integer unit which runs at 3 GHz is the ALU, which is a very small chunk of the integer pipeline.
