With lower L2 on-chip cache, Spitfire would cost less and performance will be lower than that of T_bird. Also, Spitfire will come only in Socket-A version - eliminating the cost of SLot-A module. T_bird will come in two versions - SocketA and Slot-A and will be aimed at the high end PCs.

Goutama, Spitfire's performance will be lower yet it will run at the same 900 MHz? I thought one of the major criteria of performance was MHz? Has something changed?

Thanks.....sorry for all the questions.
