Re: . Future Athlons will be specified by 'MODEL' numbers. For instance a Palomino-Athlon that runs at 1.4 GHz will be MODEL 1600, because AMD considers Palomino 1.4 GHz to be at least as fast as a Pentium 4 1.6 GHz. The printing on the chip will be 'A1600 .....', even though its a 1400 MHz part only. The same is valid for motherboards and their POST. A new BIOS Writer's Guide prohibits the BIOS from ever displaying the true core frequency of Palomino! Happy days are here again The skies above are clear again Let us sing a song of cheer again Happy days are here again Altogether shout it now! There's no one who can doubt it now So let's tell the world about it now Happy days are here again Your cares and troubles are gone; There'll be no more from now on Happy days are here again The skies above are clear again Let us sing a song of cheer again Happy days are here again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-) The informed shopper will know the relative IPC and its value, the uninformed shoppper will no longer be misled by Intel's high-revving / goes-nowhere processor. Great Job AMD!!!!!!! Regards, Dan
