Cnet reported 170mm reports from analysts.


I wonder if Intel lied to the analysts, or if the analysts lied for Intel.

Clearly there we some 1/C problems, and maybe some local hot spots. If the higher die size is true, then the solution was to increase line size/spacing and add some heat diffusion space into the "fireball" core.

Steve,

I emailed Ian and told him to please check the earlier CNet story by Kanellos that stated the P4 would be 217 mm^2 -- NOT the 170 that analysts expected. One hand doesn't know what the other hand is doing.

Pravin.
