i was refering to the L1 data cache only, u talk about code+date
				P3/cel		P4	K6	K7
L1 data				16k 		8k	32k	64k
L1 data set associativity	4		4	2	2
L1 code				16k		NA	32k	64k
L1 code set associativity	4		8	2	2
L1 data+code			32k		NA	64k	128k
numbers are better if they are larger
for more info see http://www.sandpile.org (much better for finding these 
numbers that intel/amd several hundred page manuals imho)
