Do you have a projected release date for the Athlon XP ∞+ ?

>Probably 1.73 GHz. A 100+ for every additional 66 MHz would imply that a Thunderbird would only achieve two thirds of Palomino's performance when the clock-speed approaches infinity.< But the 1.73 GHz clock speed would be a full 200 MHz faster than the 1.53 GHz of the 1800+. The best move would be to classify the 1.667 GHz Athlon XP as a 2000+, with the 1.733 GHz being 2100+ and 1.75 (Thoroughbred with 333/166 MHz FSB) being rated at 2.2 GHz. Then AMD could settle into a more conservative 200 Quantispeed marks for each 166.67 MHz of clock increase.
