Hi all,
Apple says that the G5s need no L3 cache because of the speed of its
Bus which is usually 1GHz. I'm running an AGP (Sawtooth) with a bus
speed of 100MHz so I would guess that having an L3 cache would be a
good idea. However I also would guess it would depend on the
application or multiple applications. Also, I believe it depends on
the cpu speeds available. The fastest G4 with an L3 cache is 1.5GHz
whereas ones without a cache are available to 2GHz. So, how much
faster would a no L# cache cpu have to be to match the speed and a cpu
with an L3 cache?
Any information on these issues?
Thanks to all.
Anand
