Ten, "So if "QuantiSpeed" scales linearly, but performance doesn't, then why is AMD pretending that "QuantiSpeed" reflects actual performance?"

Maybe because the reference design scales nonlinearly too?
I thought you were strong in math, according to you...
Also, the nonlinearity depends on the coordinate parameters.
In some simple coordinates everything scales linearly...

BTW, what happened to iCOMP index? Maybe we should measure
both processors using old good Intel-established methods?
Mathematics does not redefine the result of 2x2=
too frequently, as far as I remember ;-)

Re: AMD will also have a Model 10,000+ when Intel reaches 10 GHz. All they need is a razor blade to scratch off whatever "QuantiSpeed" they used to print on their top-of-the-line, then stamp "10,000+" in bold font

At the rate Intel's IPC is dropping as it introduces new chips, VIA will have a better performing chip when Intel reaches 10GHZ.
