Yes i am. Im not a kiddie who wants attention, i say its not my CPU. I will ask him for validation. If i get a link i will post it here, if not i cant proove that this pic is real. Then i have to excuse me and try to have a validation with me next time. But im shure that he isnt liying to me cause i know him good and hes over 40 years old.
K8L ALU & FPU Performance
Agena X4 & AFX(K8L):
2.9GHz Quad Core
ALU:46,800(80%/X2) Or 52,000(100%/X2)
FPU:40,320(80%/X2) Or 44,800(100%/X2)
Kuma X2(K8L):
2.9GHz Dual Core
ALU: (K8)21,000 If K8L=26,000(25%+)
FPU: (K8)16,000 If K8L=22,400(40%+)
According to this if Sandra scores are used to compare K8 with K8L specs we can see how K8L might perform agenst it's last gen parts. If these ALU & FPU numbers are true the Semperons will be even faster then some of the fastest FX's of today.
"This is just estimated" So it all depends on how well they OC and if L3 as well as other arc enhancments will make the difference. There will be double the bandwidth on memory and system. It could be very close. But FPU performance will be superior with SSE4A.
I hope we have some final proof. :D I can't wait to get the thing.Quote:

Guys, no offense but on this small corner you're showing w0mbat it's clearly visible that 'Level 3' is moved compared to 'Level 2' and is brighter as well (means 'tweaked').
Then pic from Serge84 is definitely 'tweaked' coz CPU-Z doesn't have 'Altair' name and 'AM2(+)' in file (you can view cpu-z.exe and check, there is only global 'K8L' signature). On top of that clocks are misplaced. CPU-Z always is centering text in boxes but on this pic they are biased to left. There is more to that like version of this tester, etc....
I would like to see any screens from AMD Quads and if you w0mbat will succeed with CPU-Z validation (or other informations) I will be more that happy ;)
Just how can you "VIEW" into the CPU-Z exe code?Quote:

so are there real screenshots of cpu-z running on a K8L system? or are these fake...
I cant see these things. Can u show me them? Because here it looks normal and nothing is brighter or moved. Maybe its ur screen.Quote:

So if he works for AMD, why would he supply fake screenshots. So much BS in this thread...and the usual few tries as always to make the 2 eggs into 5 chickens. Just a shame time with catch up soonish. Also I really doubt dualcores will have L3. The L3s benefit is extremely small for such a purpose. But its rather good for cache coherency control.
Serge84: I don´t think K8L got SSE4, but SSSE3. It would be very unlikely due to the fact Intel creates SSE4. (Also why in history AMDs SSE implementation ahve been alittle step behind).
ahh It's been stated for months the dual cores will have 2Mb L3

@mAJORD: Now i will ask him for validation. I mean, i know him good. He has no photoshop skills so maybe he just wanted to make a little joke on me. But i dont think that this is funny.
This was IBM and AMDS news for Dec.
http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=5329
After intel releases info that there new 45nm process uses Highk and metal gates IBM/AMD release news that they to have High K and Metal gates.
I believe in a thread you were saying how the above links info would be better than anything around. Which is it the linked info. or high K or whats actually going on here. The evidence points to market spin and hype.
So nn is it Ultra low K or is it high k . Its says in that article Zram is 15% faster using SS. Yet you say Zram only works on sol. Which is it nn.
Sorry about that guys this wasn't suppose to post in this thread . I had 2 threads open. But I decided to leave it as it does ask a valid qyestion.
make your own damn topic, JUST READ THE TOPIC!, wait I'll make you a paint graph SO YOU CAN SEE WHAT THIS THREAD IS ABOUT:slapass: !Quote:

IF YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT 45nm PROCESS AND HOW ADVANCED INTELS IS GO AND MAKE A THREAS IN THE INTEL SECTION, BUT STOP GOING OFFTOPIC IN THIS THREAD!!!
PS: turtle, you know that there is a delete button OK?
PPS: never knew how useful caps lock is :rolleyes:
I asked him for a pic or validation and he replied that he will send me a off screen pic. Now i hope for a good end :)
Hi Turtle 1. If you move your question to the proper thread, I'd be happy to address it.Quote:

Great! Any hints WHEN this will happen?Quote:

I think it will take about one week if he wants a good fake :p:Quote:

What currently IBM uses in there 65nm POWER6 and cell processor when its manufactuered on 65nm later on. AMD will take great advantage of both of these fab processes in the next 2 years. These processes are much more complex and better then bulk silicon ever could.
