"You seem to be avoiding the question. If what you say is correct, and a 2GHz Pentium 4 actually is predominately run at 1GHz, then how come it can beat a Pentium III at 1GHz by vast margins. You even admit that penalties for longer pipelines are larger. Shouldn't this decrease performance over Intel's previous architecture?" You seem to be trying to play dumb here. A processor is somewhat more complex than it's execution unit. New processor (and system) has much improved bus and system bandwidth, new processor has new trace cache, new processor has improved instruction set, it has much bigger instruction pool to exploit internal ILP. Everything was improved. Finally, it has improved compilers. Why it should be equal to 1GHz P-III? - Ali
