<Any comments about the 1.7 core voltage (Paul, anyone!)?>
The stated Core voltage is wrong. :)

RE:"Any comments about the 1.7 core voltage (Paul, anyone!)?"

Wasn't Paul saying the Athlon was a 2.5v core and dissipated 60 watts
at 500MHZ? Looks like 36.5w.
At 1.7v @.25u and a higher MHz it seems that according to Yousefs law...AMD now has the superior process technology.

Mani,

<I am surprised that no one has responded to this, ...>

I am more surprised that no one commented on the 64-bit stuff (other than some traffic in private messages, I should add). This is the second time in row that this highly provocative topic is being ignored by the thread.

Oh well, I guess the time for 64-bit architectures exciting this thread hasn't arrived yet.

Chuck

The 1.7 volts is hard to believe.

The 25 AMPs is believable.
