[hlds_linux] intel cpu w/ 1m L2 cache.

2004-02-22 Thread Christopher Luk
i just came across intel's page and found that there are 3.2G(EE) CPU with 1M L2 cahce. any one have tried it before? http://indigo.intel.com/compare_cpu/showchart.aspx?mmID=857353,857995,852351catID=7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15 further, for intel 3.2G, there are models with 1. (3.2GEE) 512k L2 + 2M

UPDATE: should be 3.2G(E) with 1M L2 cache, not 3.2G(EE). Christopher Luk wrote: i just came across intel's page and found that there are 3.2G(EE) CPU with 1M L2 cahce. any one have tried it before?

yes, you will see a speed increase with the larger cache sizes. kev Christopher Luk wrote: UPDATE: should be 3.2G(E) with 1M L2 cache, not 3.2G(EE). Christopher Luk wrote: i just came across intel's page and found that there are 3.2G(EE) CPU with 1M L2 cahce. any one have tried it before?

while the EE (extreme edition) P4 is certainly faster at pretty much everything, the E class (prescott) P4's may not be *any* faster at HLDS than the older C (northwood) P4's. These new E pentium 4 are a totally new design on the core, and as such have been desgned to run at higher frequencies.

it sounds that EE should be the best choice for new cpu besides prices. and E doesn't have too many difference from C besides heat penalty. however, Xeon series doesn't do too good on HLDS as expected while somebody talk about it in the past (btw, i have no budget to try xeon cpu mb, can't
