Re: "No - I think the full speed L2 cache will be available in both slot configurations."

Paul, maybe you didn't read the article you posted right above the post I'm quoting. The last paragraph seems pretty definitive to me:

"However, these fullspeed caches require fullspeed electricals. The other piece of Slot 1, I forgot tell you it runs at half speed to the cache, and that's another reason why the cache chips don't cost as much. But for the servers you want to run them at full speed. For server workloads it makes a big difference."
