Re: "Where did you get this delirious ideas about "integrated 2MB L2"? From what future? Are you a close buddy of Time Traveller? Intel can barely yield 1MB of STANDALONE SRAMs at 450MHz today, but you are ravving about 2MB integrated... " Ali, you should pay more attention to news releases. Re: "And again, stop your groundless drivel about bandwidth, sizes and pin count. " Groundless drivel? Let me do the math for you as it seems to be over your head. 64 bits is 1/2 of 128 bits. 1/3 speed times 1/2 width is 1/6 bandwidth. 64 data bits plus additional address and control lines is more pins that if the L2 were integrated on die. It's not really that difficult. Ask one of the technicians there to explain it to you. EP
