EP, re: "AMD has defined QH as performance relative to a Palomino(or is it TBird?)."

TBird since it was first used for Palominos and still mostly used for Palominos since TBreds remain limited. But I agree with Joe that for practical purposes it should be considered as a P4 basis.

Elmer Re..Nobody knows and AMD ain't saying because they'd rather rely on over zealous imaginations to define the term.<<

I can see the Bees are really getting concerned about the QS ratings, and are trying to debunk them before Hammer hits. It really doesn't make much difference what the QS rating is modeled upon, (the old Tbird, or NW); as long as the Hammer performs as well as a hypothetical NW at 3400 ghz would. Let the consumers decide which model they want to compare to.
