That was back in the day when we were still expecting bulldozer, not a bicycle ;)

somehow i dont like nda :)
Hahah I agree too, I recently got a 1055T and a 990FX board and i've had so much fun with it I was considering getting rid of my SB system - it's way more satisying to have proper CPU, RAM and NB tweaking to play with, after all this is why most of us our here - we enjoy squeezing every last bit of performance out the chips :D
I really hope the 8150 is on par with a stock 2600k in games, so I can justify the change (I dont care too much about it being faster in benches, apart from maybe some video encoding) but it doesnt look like it will be :(
Nda lift for italy is on 12th at 6a.m.
So in usa it would be around midnight between 11 and 12 october, don't know in which fuse, since you have 3 or 4 (east coast, central or west coast) :)
Why? do you run C11.5 for professional use? otherwise i don't see the relevance of Cinebench..
Also x6 is pretty strong in C11,5. Its only bested by 2600K and 6core intel cpu's. I don't care if BD performs like a 6core thuban. (which has alot more fpu resources in total).
Wait for C12 and you probably will see SB and BD leave thuban in the dust. (AVX and FMA support).
edit: double post
It means he's a Dr. Who fan ;)
Guys,
BD in the real world can breathe better
here are the notes from microsoft. it has nothing to do with amd

^ what would happen if the 2500k was at the same 4.85Ghz? But anyway it seems that at those clocks it's a beast, and it'll be really easy to get it that high, or even higher... but yeah, it's nice to hear something good about BD! There has to be a good side to all this nonsense!
one more day to go! :D
4.85 GHz 2500k can not beat my 4300 MHz Thuban in most multithreadings aplications....My 4300 MHz Thuban can not beat in most multithreadings ap. OC FX....Tomorrow.
Dman...no news????...will be back in 2 hours again...
Woottttt
tomorrow?

POV-RAY 3.7, R11.5, 3DsMAx 2011, x264, y-cruncher etc....hm? :p:
no all from Anandtech is as "worf of God" :) All depends at upgrade software, test selections, etc....If I will want no objective review, I can make review with tests where 1100T won in everything with 2500k. Or opossite. Thinking about it guys. No one review is the true review with all aspects
I'm sorry Flanker but a 4.8 Ghz 2500K is not going to lose to thuban 4.3 in anything.
Prove me wrong and I'll eat a shoe. If you had a 4.8 Ghz Thuban and 4.3 Ghz 2500K however...
Or a 4.2 Ghz i7 920 however...
4.2 Ghz ST 3.6 MT Zambezi barely touching Thuban MT results at 3.3 scares me a bit though.
It's like GPUs lads, it's all in the software/drivers written for it...
We can test this new architecure on older apps and it might blow. Yet blow the socks off the previous generation with newer software... But as a reviewer you have to draw a line somewhere, somehow and decide what's feasible or not (mostly we are limited due to databases,...) ...
Speaking for myself I did not adapt my test suite, so the outcome might not reflect the performance you get in Y Cruncher, POV ray, X264HD with AVX etc... An update will follow with inclusion of some new numbers with adapted software... I think most review sites will do a similar thing, if not done already...
It will be fun to play with, especially the hardcore guys will set new records...
