Although it would be nice to take advantage of this faster processor, 3
> problems make this impractical Michael,
If I'm reading your message correctly, the GTA02 will indeed have a 500MHz processor, but will not be running at 500MHz because of the three problems you outlined, is that correct?
Does this mean you will be slowing the CPU to 400MHz, or some other speed, or will you only know the answer once more testing has been done?
Your description of problem 2 makes it sound like memory access will be slower, at 83MHz, if running the CPU at full speed because of the memory bus speed, instead of the anticipated 100MHz, is that correct? Does anyone there anticipate that this 17% decrease in memory access speed will be noticeable to the end user? What's the memory access speed on the GTA01?
