Tench,

That's what I thought when I first saw that line of text. The only thing that a write through cache instruction would be useful for would be write to graphics/texture memory. In fact this is truely a well devised instruction and should prove to be intersting is implemented properly..

It will be interesting to see what effect this instruction will have on real world performance, because in theory it is a good one.

Regards,

Steve
