The FIFO is there to stay, w/o it you'd need major reworking and BIOS flashes all the way.

First post- Deneb 1.8Ghz Agena 2Ghz

They should've improved the logic of L2 and L3- my best guess, the 65nm versions are subpar compared to C2. Now they might actually have something in the vicinity, hampered by their execution units and prefetch.
