Subject: Cooler Intel P2 and Xeon? (was: Cool AMD 450 Mhz....

Go up one level in this thread


Intel Xeon 450 MHz with 2Mb L2 cache (running at 450MHz!) and 2x16K (?) L1 cache
should be shipping by the end of July...  But very pricey.  Seriously.

Intel Pentium II 450 MHz with 512K L2 cache (running at 225 MHz) and similar L1
cache should also be shipping by then....  Price, the usual c$800 to smaller
OEMs.

I here from Kryo-gossip that these should cool to >600MHz...

The reason "Rebel loves AMD" is largely the bigger L1 cache.  I think the faster
L2 cache may mitigate against the advantage.

Should be interesting, either way.

Kind regards
