I just did what the site says, and low and behold, it does say prescott when you highlight the line. Sneaky, sneaky.

I wonder if Intel is happy about this?

Nope, its still up.

If a review site has prescott, that can only mean that there is a NDA ending soon. Atleast I hope so, b/c otherwise the world is a bore.

if you highlight the part that says
"Our test bed was configured as follows: ... "

on this site -

you should see something like this

I guess I don't get the big deal... I guess I'm pretty ignorant?

Whats the next gen Core, Prescott? Whats out right now is Northwood, correct?

The main point of this Was twofold.

1. Show that intels having some MAJOR issues with ramping prescotts speeds up.

2. Show that if they don't fix these issues and get prescotts speeds up and fast, prescott will be a technological flop.

Oh and 3. Go "Tehehe... we got around the NDA... we are so Smartzerz!"

I am sure that is the total point.

i could have sworn when i read that review prescott was not in white... it struck me as odd, but i didn't want to make a fool of myself and post it here.


and i read the thread at anandtechs forum and it said something about how all prescotts are 90nm or something? i thought that the first prescotts were supposed to be like northwoods, and then the later ones would have like 64bit capabilities and have 900something pins? maybe im just confused.

AFAIK Prescott will be 0.13u at first and 0.09u later, but Im not sure.

The AMD AthlonFX and Opteron have 939/940 pins and are 64bit compatible, but I dont think Prescott is. I think maybe you got things mixed up a bit.

I'm pretty sure they're gonna be .09u for the duration of the Prescott lifespan.

They'll be on Socket 478 at first then switch over to LGA 775.

For the first few hours of the article it was black like the rest of the font but later it was changed to white color so it was the same as the background.
