G4 is coming to a Pegasos near you this summer! : Comment 36 of 63 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Anonymous on 25-Jun-2003 23:04 GMT | In reply to Comment 32 (takemehomegrandma): > I'm obviously no Hardware expert, but are you sure that the *performance* really doubles
You've got a point, that was ignorant, doubling the clock wouldn't double CPU performance (in the wider sense, including memory accesses), let alone performance of other components. One more reason to hope that Genesi will pick a fast G4, to have enough leverage for a substantial (felt) performance increase.
Personally, I have no idea how good a PegasosII/G4 system would scale with the clock rate at these comparatively slow speeds (0.6-1.3 GHz). Any guess from the hardware experts? Saturation below 1.3GHz to be expected? |
