Ali, <I do not hear too many objections from him, incidentally> I prefer not to waste my time repeating objections I've already made in the past. You are free to continue repeating your oh-so "substantiated opinion." Most non-AMDroids will take it for the two pesos it's worth. Tenchusatsu

Ali, Re: ""tell us how fast the cache runs in the .18u Athlon when it operates at 1.67GHz" >> I do not know and do not care as long as 1.6AXP matches 2.2P4 in performance." You distinctly made the claim that SRAM cells are hitting a physical limit in the Pentium 4. "First, a significant portion of the chip - caches - runs at 1.1G, because it is simply the physical limit of their SRAM cells for the given technology." If Intel can't run their cache past 1.1GHz because of physical limits at .13u manufacturing, then AMD certainly can't run their cache at 1.67GHz at .18u. Which is it, Ali? Are you wrong about the Physical limits of SRAM cells, or does AMD run their cache at 833MHz? Do you still plan on bullshitting yourself out of this one? wbmw
