Don't expect anything beyond 2Q04 to hold true ;)

2H04 seems to be the one. I hope it holds true. The Winchester looks like a good time to upgrade. We'll se how well the 90nm chips scale.

Definitely looks like AMD are gonna be pumping out the SOI chips, can't wait to see how they scale.

Silicon On Insulator, IIRC.
Silicon on Insulator..."SOI"...
Will supposedly reduce a chip's power consumption and allow it to run cooler at any given clock speed. I read somewhere that today's chips are thermally limited versus speed path limited...so mabe soi will get us some higher clocks... :D

thats cool. watercooling will go a far way then.

or go away completely. if these chips run cooler, whats the point of supercooling them since the heat problem has been remedied
