Re: "Let's try to elevate the discourse. How much faster will K7 be than Intel's top of the line processor?" Good idea but I take issue with your premise. What evidence other that foils do you have to believe that claims of higher frequency are anything more than pure hype. AMD has never even demoed a system other than "behind the curtain" type displays with no benchmarks and no confirmed frequencies. Intel has demoed a 1000Mhz+ system in public (using active cooling) and an 800Mhz system in public apparently without active cooling. AMD hasn't been able to do anything near that yet you base your premise as though higher frequency for the K7 was a foregone conclusion. Not so, unless you are gullible enough to be persuaded by foils. Your bias has blinded you to the point where you can't engage in a reasonable discussion without phoney premises. EP
