Forbes article on next gen IBM powerPC : Comment 31 of 50 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Anonymous on 14-Oct-2002 22:41 GMT | In reply to Comment 28 (strobe): >You can FORGET about using the PPC 970 with your Pegasos or AmigaOne.
We'll see.
>Cripes even the G4 is currently being held back.
Held back by what?
Stupid in-order execution? The MAI chipset surely doesn't held back G4
since G4 only supports 133MHz SDR bus speed anyway.
>The new macs with DDR might have a different situation since the northbridge
>chip is on the CPU module. Not that anybody here would care.
No one cares because you are spreading misinformation, shame on you! Take a look
at http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/g4_mirrored_drive_doors/G4_MDD_CPU_Module.html
and tell me where to find the northbridge chip, smartass!
>Anyway take a few deep breaths and realize these boards are still crappy
>even in comparison to Apple's portables.
LOL!
What's the name of the company that helds back the "already bandwidth choked"
G4 with a crappy 100MHz bus - just because blind Mac followers buy any crap
and be happy to do so (eMac, iMac)?
Oh yes, even the iBook runs at only 100MHz although the CPU supports 150 or
even up to 200MHz FSB. W00t! |
