Re: "I haven't heard the voltage yet. I don't care if it runs at 2.5 volts." Neither do I--it's got that huge thermal brick to back it up, and it's not as if they're putting it in a laptop! Kevin

Jim - RE: I haven't heard the voltage yet. I don't care if it runs at 2.5 volts." I don't think anyone but Paul and Yousef care.

Jim, Re: "I haven't heard the voltage yet. I don't care if it runs at 2.5 volts." Now Jim ... This isn't what you were saying just a few months ago --> Message 7675250 "Yousef taught me long before you came on the BB that Intels process technology was better than AMDs as evidenced by merely comparing the chip voltages. Pentium II=2.0v K6-2=2.2v Pentium III=1.8v." You're a "slow learner" <ggg> ... How about this one --> Message 7862088 "Ali, A 1.6v core voltage for the K7 would mean that AMD has, at that point, superior process technology to Intel (1.8v), per Uselesses (Yousef) rule of thumb. No wonder this article perked up PREngels eyes..." I think you really do understand the significance of the AMD K7 at 2.5V ??!! Make It So, Yousef
