Re: do you know if the hammers are supposed to start at 1 G? And if not, at what level?

No one who actually knows will be posting the information on a discussion group thread.

But... 10 stage pipeline, Bulk silicon thoroughbred will be running at about 2.2GHZ (2600+) in Q4. My WAG is that 12 stage pipeline, SOI hammer will probably debut at 2.0GHZ and 2.2GHZ (3100+ and 3400+ given the expected high IPC) and move fairly rapidly to 3GHZ (4400+) before the end of next year.

In the same time frame, Intel will be going from 3GHZ to 4.?GHZ - Anyone have any guesses on how high Intel will be able to scale P4 by the end of next year? 4? 4.5? 5?

Itanic is going to be facing some tough competition. If Xeon isn't scaled rapidly, Hammer will gain a lot of share, if Xeon is pushed hard, Hammer may or may not gain much share, but Itanic will most likely sink.

The more Intel pushes its high end 64-bit processor, the more valuable Hammer will appear.
