Re: Yonah launch speed plummets to 2.16GHz, from earlier claims of 2.53GHz.

Whoever claimed 2.53GHz can't multiply. You can't find an even or half multiplier to get 2.53GHz with a 667MHz FSB.

The Yonah frequency was not expected to be 2.5+GHz at launch. The Inquirer (Charlie) wrote a story to "set things straight" on Yonah frequencies. Apparently he thought the ~2.3GHz (2.33GHz) frequency from Intel's own roadmap (which was probably the Sossaman slide featured at x86-secret) was too low.

The article also mentions the AMD Taylor CPU. It looks like a 90-nm part. If Taylor is anything like Turion is today then it will be clocked at 1.8GHz while Sossaman is outperforming it at 2.16GHz. Quite likely a majority of Taylor notebooks will be sold with 32-bit XP Home at launch.

Re: Nocona 3.8 and 4.0GHz parts have been cancelled." So 3.6GHz is it until next year for Intel Xeon.

Good news for Opteron.
