PB,

<Hope so! This week should be fun.>

Well the fun has already begun. Sharky has finally turned a corner!

"we now heartily recommend the Athlon 700 CPU, and the systems based around it"

A good review and that sheds some light into what Intel might be focussing on for CuMine w.r.t. benchmarks and when CuMine socketed versions might show up, etc.

Chuck

Athlon 700 Review

63.210.10.50 (Anand)

Here are a few quotes

"The Coppermine should have some very unique offers to make that will give the Athlon some healthy competition."

"It'll be interesting to see how well the Coppermine stands up in this test, but if the architecture stays the same it is highly unlikely that even a 700MHz Coppermine will blow the Athlon out of the water here."

"Even under NT, the overall performance of the Athlon is still greater than that of Intel's fastest. It'll take quite a bit to match the power of the Athlon 700."
