Merom (Core 2 duo) is a proliferation of Yonah(Core Duo).
But it is an aggressive proliferation!
-EMT64 is only supported by Core 2
- Core2 is 4-wide decode/rename/retire vs. 3wide for Core Duo.
- Full 128-bit SSEx
- Macro-fusion support on Core2.
- and much more !
In the best case a gay would be beheaded in the central square in "Palestine".
Far more likely for him isto be lynched or stoned to death.
Remember there is a "honor killing" culture in Islam: a father/brother can kill a daughter for having pre-marital sex.
First of all, I design microprocessors (part of them) for a living.I validated PentiumIV (hence the nick), and then switched to some more adventurous things :-) So, I more-or-less understand, how the things are done ... To get +20% integer performance requires a very significant redesign. One...
From my understanding of the company the situation is as follows:
1. There were absolutely no intention to inflate Merom (this is how the design is called internally, Conroe is a desktop version) numbers vs. AMD. Apparently, ATI chipset for AMD was chosen to allow the same graphics cards on...
Do israel bomb apartments?
Yes, we do so. The only known such case to me was killing of Salah Schade( a very serious Hamas bombmaker that was directly responslible for killing tens of Israeli civillians peacefully riding the buses and going to discos). The lack of intelligence lead to death...
Why are you surprised at the benchmarks?
If Core Duo (aka Yonah) was quite comparable clock-for-clock with AMD chips then
add on top of that:
- 4-wide machine
- True 128-bit SSE/SSE2
- Third ALU
- and some more improvements.
- and all this WITHOUT significant lengthening of the pipe...
As someone who is actually on a Merom design team, I must say that it was an honest benchmarking that Anand did. There were no strings attached.
We've just got a good chip :-) That's all! Merom is, indeed, a NUCLEAR weapon against AMD :-)
