Propagation delays and capicitive coupling "Why would 1GHz TBirds have tighter timing demands when they run the same bus/port protocol as all other Athlons? Aside from power requirements I don't see how it matters what frequency the processor runs at, it still looks the same to the MB. " Because the L2 operates at much higher speeds the propagation of signals becomes more of a Issue. Different MB makers may have different physical layouts and didn't take these timing issues(propagation delay) into consideration. You also may have issues with capacitive coupling between traces runs as Fo increases (Xc=1/2piFoC) Milo
