Here it is:http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/amd-hammer-family/index.html
I found the link on jcnews.com (He's back, woo hoo!)
This article has a LOT of info, and much of it new. Why haven't we seen links to it from the bigger websites?
A few of the gems:
1. DRAM frequency versus core frequency (It varies between 150 and 166 depending on the core speed)
2. Details of AMD's Total Performance Initiative benchmark suite with benchmark results.
3. Comparison between 256kb and 1M Athlon 64 in several benchmarks. (SPEC and TPI)
4. EXTENSIVE latency analysis and memory benchmarks at several different core speeds to show scaling of memory performance.
5. Lots of interesting details about how work gets done faster in the Hammer core versus the XP core.
