re: I think that may be overstating things a little bit. Significantly better fp_rate than current Intel QC parts, perhaps. And if the 2.5GHz is correct for top speed, I would guess integer performance will lag even current Intel QC parts. I don't think so. Intel's current QC parts are not going to be much speedier end Q2/07 than they are now. Also with the vast improvement in sse integer performance we should see close to on par integer performance with Intel's QC's end Q2 07 (avging say 10% below - my guess against yours). You obviously don't agree but we'll see. Better benches are supposed to be available early 07. Yes Intel's 45nm looks like it'll bring higher frequencies but it's due any time in H2/07, not end Q2/07 and AMD will not stand still between then. Regards, Rink
