not big news, but it was interesting to see.

That cache finally is making some use of itself. It seems Doom3 is depended on memory latency the most.

:hooray:

It still looks like it got its butt whooped by AMD stuff. Doesn't look like a Small victory at all. Am I missing a point or something?

Is it that it does better then a northwood?

Yes, finaly the prescott pulls ahead at the same clocks, hopefully all upcoming games will reflect the same results.

Finally! A real-life justification for the EE!

glad i bought a prescott. maybe SSE3 implementations are finally used!?:)

[Creep-DK]

Im glad i got a presscott too, i need all the help i can get to run Doom 3 when it comes out, i cant afford to buy a new gfx atm :D

Hopefully, we will see more games in the near future making use of the bigger cache in prescott.

Unfortunately, the stock 3000+ (512K) A64 is within 1fps of both the 3.2EE and 3.4EE ...

And the 3.0E is 3fps slower than the 2800+ (512K) A64...
