Paul - RE: "Doubling the data path and address lines form 32 to 64 will have a SEVERE impact on die size. AMD may have implied that a 64 bit SludgePumper on a 0.13 micron process would be 5% bigger than a 0.18 micron AThwiper." Nope. "Adding 64-bit capabilities increases the die size only 5% over the approximately 104 sq. mm that a 32-bit Athlon requires, using a 0.18-micron process, Lapinski said." ebnews.com When this article came out last year, I remember you and Saturn V were wondering how AMD could claim this because both of you thought the extension to 64bit required much more die space.
