Via Cloning Intel Pentium4?
by Steve Gibson, Oct 19, 2001 12:35pm PDTHere's one that I dont know how slipped by us a couple days ago at the Microprocessor Forum. VIA has announced plans to create a Pentium4 CPU Clone (Thanks /.). Thats right, not just motherboards but they are actually going to make the CPU.
C.J. Holthaus, an engineer at VIA-owned Centaur Technology, told reporters the chip is a "Pentium 4 clone". Like Pentium 4 it will use a deep 18-stage pipeline architecture, allowing it to scale to very high speeds, and other key technologies will also mimic the Pentium 4, Holthaus said.The chip is based on 0.10-micron technology and is due in 2003 or 2004. update: TheInquirer.net is claiming that the VIA guy who said this is in a bit of trouble, and they are of course now denying the whole thing.
