That is impossible. Scumbria says the pipeline is all screwed up, even though he knows nothing about its "intimate details"

If you were following you might remember Scumbria said Intel's original demo of an air-cooled 1.5GHz P4 on .18u process technology was "incredibly slimy".

Message 12883165

Does anyone seriously think Athlon will scale to 10GHz? Meanwhile Sludgepumper continues to slip....

BTW, Otellini said McKinely uses 240 million transistors. Meanwhile AMD has never demonstrated the ability to manufacture any large die device.

RE:"did you notice that Paul Otellini said the P4 will scale to over 10GHz!!!"

Otellini also said the fact that people would take a free computer was proof the public was accepting Intels CPU registration/ID number. Since phased out.
He's also a marketing guy. Which figures.

RE:"That is impossible. Scumbria says the pipeline is all screwed up, even though he knows nothing about its "intimate details"."

Scumbria is one of the few guys in the world that can design a CPU in a relatively short time that is actually manufacturable.
Vague maybe, but pretty "right on' about the scaling, so far.
