Milo, My thought is if Clawhammer can deliver on the 1300 Spec score what would a 4 or 8 way Sledgehammer produce. Not higher SPEC score since SPECint is single thread bench. <g> But it would do wonders to database applications. Joe

Has anyone seen SPEC scores for XP2000+ and for Intel NW chips? The latest on the spec.org site shows that both the AMD XP 1800+ and the XP 1900+ beat both the 2GHz Xeon and the 2GHz P4. System....SPECint2000....result..base XP 1900+ (Epox board).......701.....677 XP 1800+ (Epox board).......671.....648 Dell P4-2000.........................664.....648 Dell P4-2000 Xeon...............663.....642 I believe we can extrapolate a P4-3000 score of about 1000 (SPECint). Since this may be the limit of the Northwood core, if AMD delivers a PR3400+ Clawhammer in 2002, it will be quite a coup. The predicted SPEC score of 1300 also fits with the model designation. Remember, hammers will also implement SSE2, so the SPECfp will probably leapfrog Intel as well, even if Hammer's FPU is the same as Palomino. Petz
