Default Affiliate Review: Prescott Review @ Hardware Analysis

Hardware Analysis Offers a pretty in depth review of Prescott

The bottom line is that, clock-for-clock, Prescott performs just about as well as Northwood. Slightly better in some cases, slightly worse in others - but overall, describing the two as relatively equal isn't a stretch. Intel hasn't appreciably 'devalued' the MHz here, although they certainly haven't improved its value, as we hoped the larger caches, better branch predictor, and other various improvements might (like they did with Northwood). Instead, as a result of the deeper pipeline, we have essentially a processor with larger caches that performs like one with smaller caches (but that Intel hopes will scale better).
