Re: "I have no idea how SPECfp works, but Elmer hinted Intel will use SSE to increse Cuontimemine's score. " Actually, I can report that Coppermine will be within a few % of the MIA-thlon in FP but exactly how they accomplish this I can't say. The person who I heard make this claim was VERY high up inside Intel and his name would probably be recognized. I was speculating that they will use SSE but I don't know that as a fact. Actually you guys better hope they do it that way because if they get to within a few % without using SSE then you're in real trouble when they do. EP
