    Next CPUs I am looking forward to are going to come out in 2005.
    It will be using some very interesting transistor technology that will completely change processors forever

    For most aplications the cache size will make more of a difference in your experience than the processor speed.

    No, it comes out around June or may, 2004.

    Lol, I'm still saving for the Athlon 64 XP <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->. I would be looking for Intel's new processor but I know its impossible to get one.

    Sort of, however, as illustrated by the gist of this topic, I like to avoid the bleeding edge of technology.


    And are we talking about the same thing? Silicon based Low K Dielectrics are already out there but not used as much. I am partially referring to FINFETS and 3 dimensional transitors.
