Re: "One anonymous person posted on a messageboard that a 1.5GHz P4 will do 524 in specfp2000 and 502 in specint2000 with the 5.0 compiler. Of course, this IS a random person so it should be taken with a BIG grain of salt. But the numbers fit the speculation that P4 isn't too good in integer clock for clock. THe fp score seems reasonable because of SSE2"

Those numbers are far far ahead of anything AMD has dreamed of and are world class, even in FP, and those numbers still may be conservative, we'll just have to wait and see.....<G>

I think it's time to realize that regardless of the IPC, the real issue is total performance from a given process. Who cares if the IPC is slightly lower, if the overall performance is higher?
