XP2500 to Have 0.13u Core

[vesther]

I'm just hoping that Thoroughbred will use Socket A (462). The .13u Die is going to be great. Hopefully the Revision B Athlon XP will finally outperform the Pentium 4 all the way. Just a question: How come an 1800MHz AXP has a Model Number of 2500+ instead of 2200+?

close to the AMD action tell the INQUIRER that the XP 2500+ will use a .13 micron core but that the 2200+ will use .18 micron technology.
The 2200 is slated to appear this quarter, and it will support the usual cluster of multimedia instructions including MMX, 3DNow and SEE.

Other details are that it will run at 1800MHz, using a 133 x 13.5 multiplier, have a 64-bit dual pumped bus, operate at 1.75 volts, and have 64K data two way as well as 64K instructions, also two way.

1800Mhz is the 2200+, Think of it this way.

Yipes ! I was going to Post a fouth

Instead, let me ask, "Does anybody understand Silicon on Insulator (SOI) , which is the HAMMER ? [To follow the 0.13 mu Thoroughbred ]

Those guys at AMD are really into their job!

These cores just keep getting smaller and smaller. Its going to get real hard to put heatsinks on one day!
