No problems with high speed P4s – Intel

While Intel won't comment on unannounced products such as its very soon to be released 2.80GHz Pentium 4, the company has got back to us on allegations that software won't support the higher speeds.

An Intel representative told the INQUIRER today: "We don't comment on unannounced products, however the Pentium 4 processor silicon is very healthy and scaling well.

"We see no issues in sacling Intel processor performance with today's software loads."

The suggestion was that there might be difficulties in OS software from Windows supporting high clock speeds with both Intel and AMD processors, which this statement appears to discount.
