So a 2556 Mhz Pentium proccessor ONLY does 3,644,544 Kkeys/sec , while THE LOWERED MHZ PPC AT 1600 Mhz , DOES 16,991,648 Kkeys/sec !! What i can say is that is is like 6 times faser then this stupid Puntium 4.


Nico, don't believe everything you read. you can probebly find some other article that says exactly the opposite... i don't think we can actually know for sure how fast this cpu is, but i don't think the G4 is 7.44 times faster then the P4 Mhz to Mhz.

And incidently, AMD processors are FULL RISC processors with extra transitors to emulate x86 instructions. AMD did just release a chip without the x86 emulation.


you mean the alchemy? that's not a PC class CPU, it's just for PDAs and stuff. i really hope they'll release their hammer CPU in a non-x86 version!
