I don't know why this would suprise anyone. With a non-integrated memory controller, I struggle to see how you'd ever get that big of a performance jump with ddr2 CW Sent via BlackBerry from Cingular Wireless -Original Message- From: Hayes Elkins [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Tue, 08 Aug

Well on that point, conroe tests show that even with the current non-integrated controller from the 975X, the CPU's memory performance as a whole does as good or better than an A64 X2. I think this test shows that latency is now a major factor for conroe - just like it always has been for

What conroa is is super efficient and it lives up to all the hype. At the same time I can't figure out impact on the channel Someone had asked about x2 5000+ availability Try to find me conroe chips almost anywhere :). Tier1 manufacturers only babe :) Sent via BlackBerry from Cingular
