Scumbria: I would guess that there will be little or no redesign in the 0.13 shrink of P4.

They will probably fix a few bugs, some speedpaths, and turn on functionality of some previously broken parts of the CPU (like multithreading support.)


While not "redesign" per say, a lot of potential does exist in that phrase ;)

Scumbria, wouldn't Multithreading support on Northwood be enough to raise IPC to PIII levels? /Petz
PS - at least on Win NT and 2000
