Re: from Kap:On the other hand, the M-tang/Palomino core was completely redone with custom-designed logic for speed and short-circuit evaluations to minimize number of circuit switches and to save power. Also the drive strengths of non-critical path circuits were reduced to minimize power consumption. On top of that we have a bunch of new architectural features like PowerNow, SSE, HW prefetch and TLB improvements. Charles, I understand you were very active on the thread the last days. That's why I hope you do not mind if I am particularly interested in your take about the significance of the core changes mentioned by Kap in what matters the recent discussions (probably initiated from you. Not sure about that though.) Thanks and regards, S
