>IBM’s PowerPC 970MP processor has two PowerPC 970FX-like 32-/64-bit processing engines inside, each of the cores have dedicated 1MB level-two cache. While initially some sources suggested that IBM’s dual-core chip for desktops, workstations and blade servers would be clocked at up to 3.0GHz, commercial chips will operate in the range of 1.40GHz – 2.50GHz, a bit lower compared to the speed of the current top-of-the-range PowerPC 970FX product that works at 2.70GHz.
