Re: "As far as the cumine 700 at 800. That was an engineering sample, un clocklocked. Which kind of calls the whole thing into question. Some hand picked .25u Athlons will run at 1000MHZ..."

It would have been better to see a 700MHz CuMine, but at least it is a data point that is consistent with the other early-release benchmarking info we heard last week. Also that was a BX MB. A Camino or Carmel MB may offer even better performance, depending on who you listen to. An additional point is that these benchmarks do not make use of SSE, and still CuMine looks very competitive.
