The die size of the "Madison" Itanium-2 is 374 mm2. The die of the "McKinley" variant is 421 mm2. What is the die size of "Merced" - the first Itanium?

My intent is to detect the number and type of functional units in a CPU with running benchmark tests. Just for the sake of clarity I will talk in "C" below, although, be assured I looked at the assembly and it is what you expect. If you repeat "r1+=r2" on a X GHz P4, you get 2X BIPS (billion...

Don't have your type of board but it seems like you have the HD LED wires backwards. Unplug the wires, rotate 180deg and plug it back in. Looking at the diagram of the board, it shoud be on pins 1 and 3. "Bken1" wrote in...

Hello, I recently obtained the SE7501BR2 server mother board and want to use the onboard SCSI controler to create a RAID 0. I was wondering if I could have the follwing: A: One SCSI 36GB 10K disk as the operating sistems and back ups disk B: Two SCSI 18GB 15K disks configured in RAID 0 to store...

I've recently dug up an old socket 7 mobo and a late production p120. The chip does 2x75mhz and would like to try 3x but unforunately the mobo isn't working properly. I would like to find out which pin to pull up/down on the chip itself so i can see if 3x75 will work. I've scoured the net and...

Hi, I'm a graduate student developing JAVA JIT compiler on Itanium. Working with Itanium, I got a problem with speculative loads and needs your kind help to get out of it. Here's my situation, I'm trying to use the "speculative load" feature of IA64 for performance. But I found speculative loads...
