    So you say two pipelines despite AMDs charts saying otherwise, and assume a higher frequency, maybe doublepumped pipes to compensate?

    EDIT:
    Still don't get it. Your theory about 2 Pipes seems to be based on charts of performance hinting similar performance per thread. But when you get information about higher integer performance you start talking about higher frequencies instead of the four pipes.

    That performance chart could be based on a 4 module 8 core interalgos, we still don't know if the 16 core part will be 2011 or later.
