Tench, I think you need to re-evaluate the k-3 once anand's benchmarks are completed. It will also be interesting to compare with 2M L-3 caches - I understand you get anothe 4% improvement from 1M caches. In addition the effect of increased RAM is an important point. I would like to see the benchmarks with 128Mb and 256Mb of RAM. FYI, we have a PU-450 running with 1Gb or RAM here for some simulation work, so people are using large RAMS out there. Except for Gamers the PIII is the highest performing CPU. When you take the price into account it seems to be a real winner to me. The key for AMD is not wether it's a great CPU of course. The key is wether they can yield and ship enough. Based on the price/performance it should sell extremely well into the business and NT markets. It would also be interesting to compare the KIII with 2Mb L3 cache with the XEONS in server applications - I suspect the performance will be none too shabby! Regards, Kash.
