Gopher:
"Yamhill is based on P4 core and will be 32 bit internally. 64 bit performance will suck - probably a bit better than the Hammer emulator but nowhere near Hammer itself."

How do you know this? No definite details are out yet.

"It will do as a stopgap until Intel can produce a true 64 bit x86-64 processor but it will not compete easily with Hammer. More of a face-saving rearguard action for Intel I would say. "

Yes, but those kind of stopgaps are what have kept AMD at < 30% market share. Like the early P3's, the early P4's etc.....
