Tench - RE: "Cirrus, remember when AMD introduced the Athlon last year? It was billed at a 0.25u processor, yet it had both 0.25u and 0.18u features. I forgot what it was called, or how it works, but I'm guessing perhaps AMD has something similar planned for Mustang and Corvette. Maybe those processors will have both 0.18u and 0.13u features." Yeah, it had the size of .25, but required voltage of .18. If AMD has the upcoming Mustang/Corvette the same way with .18 and .15/.13, respectively, then how are they reducing the size of the core? I guess I should ask the AMD thread. You know, a .15 Thunderbird with 1MB L2 cache would be nearly the same size as the current Thunderbird (120mm2). If Mustang ends up coming out on .15, it will be a very low cost server/workstation processor. That may be how AMD intends to go up against the Cascades w/2MB L2 cache, the processor that is over 300mm2. Add LDT and one north bridge per two processors and I think you have a pretty powerful platform for multi-way systems. Got that Tony? ;)
