PCstats nyhedsbrev omkring P4 hyperthreading

Fik lige en pcstats nyhedsbrev ind på mail, her er hvad de skriver, i må undskylde at jeg ikke har noget at linke til, men der står ikke noget inde på deres egen side, det her kan kun læses i deres nyhedsbrev...
The Intel Developer Forum kicked off earlier this week and was highlighted by a Pentium 4 demonstration running at 4.1GHz. The testers increased the processor's clock speed dynamically, eventually hitting 4.7GHz before the processor crashed (keep in mind that the Pentium 4 in question was being super-cooled).
Intel's President, Paul Otellini, confirmed that the upcoming Pentium 4 3.06GHz chip will support hyper-threading and claimed servers will see about 30% increased performance with the feature enabled. Even more exciting, desktop applications will see up to a 25 percent boost. And, the feature should be easy to implement with a motherboard BIOS update. Windows XP already recognizes hyper-threading, so it would seem that the last step is for Intel to enable the feature.
AMD won't be trumped so easily, though. Though AMD doesn't have a presence at IDF, rumors still surround the next Athlon XP release. Some speculate that the 2700+ will support a 333MHz front side bus, while a few optimists anticipate 512KB of Level 2 cache. I'd like to remind those cheerful few that neither the Athlon XP 2400+ nor 2600+ chips have hit retail yet. Unfortunately, many resellers are claiming early October for availability.
