EP,

I asked Scumbria, At what speed will both K7 and P4 top out at on 0.18 or 0.13? Can you you give me any quantifiable prediction about the MHz headroom of either part?

He offered no reply to those questions. That about sums it up.

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

Meanwhile Intel has lost the ability to design any small die device.

"We are big, but we are slow" seems to be the slogan lately.

I believe a LOT of that is on-chip CACHE memory - which may account for about 150,000,000 of those transistors.
