Michael,
If I'm reading your message correctly, the GTA02 will indeed have a
500MHz processor, but will not be running at 500MHz because of the three
problems you outlined, is that correct?
Does this mean you will be slowing the CPU to 400MHz, or some other
speed, or will you only know the answer once more testing has been done?
Your description of problem 2 makes it sound like memory access will be
slower, at 83MHz, if running the CPU at full speed because of the memory
bus speed, instead of the anticipated 100MHz, is that correct? Does
anyone there anticipate that this 17% decrease in memory access speed
will be noticeable to the end user? What's the memory access speed on
the GTA01?
Thanks,
Ian
