3.6ghz a year from now? things are slowing down a bit now aren't they?

and isn't intel piece mealing what was meant to be pentium5? hyperthreading, bus speed, cache, die shrink?
or is it because amd delayed hammer, so intel is doing little by little instead of one big bang

Frankly I'm happy its slowing down.(Actually no but I have to make it sound good)

That means that developers are going to understand the hardware better and how to push it so that is good I guess...


But do you think maybe its also x86 limitations?

Interesting article. Still, at the core level of what it will have to offer, it doesn't really add a whole lot more.

yea slower CPU, but....

faster bus, more memory bandwidth, better hyperthreading, more cache on those CPUs

I don't care if its slow, gimme gimme gimme
