>What do you estimate for the die sizes of each of these cores?< I have not actually estimated the 90nm die size of Sledgehammer. However, I estimate that at 130nm Sledgehammer will have a die size of about 150mm2. This would make it larger than Northwood, but it also includes 1MB of L2 cache already. My guess is that the 90nm die size of Sledgehammer will be close enough to that of Prescott that SOI or nine layers of metal interconnects alone would be sufficient to make it somewhat more expensive than Prescott. Overall, I would guess that the Sledgehammer die at 90nm will cost about 25% more to manufacture than the Prescott die.
