AMD K7 Interview
Does the release of the PIII Coppermine worry you at all, regarding the speed increases that Intel will get with its move to on-die cache and Copper technology?
No. Athlon has 128k of on-die cache and as you will see from the performance metrics which we have already published on our web site, we expect to outperform coppermine when it finally comes out in November. Also coppermine will debut at 600 Mhz, we have 600 Mhz now. Again, coppermine does not use copper interconnect.
