Just a question: I read somewhere on the web today (I don't remember where) that Northwood has been in mass production since May already (therefore, according to that article, there shouldn't be any shortages now). If that is really true could it be argued that the manufacturing process is now already quite mature? I think what you saw was the statement that the 1.3u process had been in production since May. That was for Tualatin, not NorthWood. It would be fair to say it is not exactly new but not yet mature. Today it seems that Northwood easily reaches 2.4 GHz without voltage modification. Higher overclocking may need some voltage increase. But if the process is already quite mature, could Ali have a point by saying that it may not be so easy to go beyond 2.4 GHz (or let's say 2.5 GHz)? Don't believe it. The only point Ali has is on the top of his head. EP
