RE:"So let us just suppose that Banias can offer superb performance at lower clock frequency."

RE:"Then it should be judged on how high its performance is, which is probably someplace between a Celeron P4 and a regular P4. Even if it runs at 1.5 GHz, it should sell for whatever its performance level is."

Anyone remember a chip called the RISE mP6(rise technology) or something like that. Only ran at about 500 Mhz but had great FPU performance. Low voltage. Supposed to be great for notebooks and gamers or so the story goes...

Ah Bananas...does this all sound familiar?

Jim

PS...The RISE chip kind of got lost because it ran at low Mhz...they haven't had a press release for a year and 3 months. rise.com
Yet another chapter in the Mhz sells rulebook?
