Re: Pentium 4 will be on 0.13 micron ? Twice the size of K7 on .13u"

Nope


After INTC puts the needed cache and missing execution units back in, it'll be 180mm2 on .13 while K7 comes in around 60, so P4'll be closer to three times the size (and 5 to 9 times as expensive to produce).

:-)

Paul,

Re: "Guess what size the Pentium 4 will be on 0.13 micron ? Twice the size of K7 on .13u"

Nope.


Ok, P4 is 1.8 times size of Tbird on .18. What will be the multiple of .18u Palomino? What multiple will .13u Northwood be of .13u Thoroughbred? Since you know what it will not be.
