Steve,

I think Paul Engel had posted that the CPU power was in the 60 Watt range.

I think his sources were pretty good on that one.

On the whole I am quite impressed after reading comments from the FS follow up comments.

It sure will be sweet to see the benchmarks once optimized code and patches are available.

I just hope AMD has enough resources and support for all this.

Shame if they have a killer CPU but no software that can un on it.

The SPEC marks however should be quite stunning looking at the diskmark scores.

Also getting the L2 cache up to 1/2 speed seems critical to me.

Obviously these higher speed rams will make the power requirements and issues even worse.

Regards,

Kash
