Someone refresh my memory about Thunderbird. Doesn't it have a full speed L2 cache on die? This is better news than I thought
How would this beast benchmark?
Also, this conference where Intel will demo a Willy, will AMD be able to demo any thing?

Re: "I will tell you a little secret. No speed path work has been done on k7 or T-bird cores either. Pretty scary, what these cores can do with some speed path work ha?"

Sorry Kap but I don't believe it. For one Athlon has been out for months now and I can't believe AMD hasn't done any speed path work. Willamette on the other hand is on A-0 so no speed path work has been done by definition.
