thats one huge die. looks like a 8800GTX die.
wow, I'm a little turned on.

that'll crunch some WUs :D
Do you think faster with SSE or straight FPU? Considering how much AMD has enhanced the FPU in the new core(s).Quote:

SSE is vastly improved too! Doubled throughput compared to K8 core.Quote:

It could be an "Engineering version." If it is, them engineers have some big nails on their fingers :stick:Quote:

somehow your sig and that phrase should not be shown together because some noob will probably think about something other than Quadcore if you know what I mean :rolleyes:Quote:

According to Techreport Windsor is 220mm˛
They agree about Brisbane's 126 mm˛.
The simple math says that Barcelona is 126x2+??mm˛ So, I guess 300 mm˛ is the minimum if you consider that H rev. core+L2 is bigger (probably >130mm˛) then G rev., and L3 is quite "burden" on size!
Anyhow, 45nm is THE MUST for AMD, and it's ~18 months away.
the old AthlonXP's had shiny dies like that
yippie does it work lol hehe :)
They dont have to rush if you ask me, it only will look my e6400 old.
Rush isn't a good thing, look at nVidia.
I really hope K8L will be damn good, how more Good action, how better.
:woot: booking ticket for Barcelona :D
Nedjo,
My bad, you'r correct about G80 - it is 484mm˛. Bad google search.
I got the ~300mm˛ value for Barcelona by comparing the available pictures of the bare die compared to the package dimensions.
It's definately 290-300mm˛.
The result should be valid as I just calculated the G80 die using 2 different low res pics of IHSless G80; the final value was "only" 1% off reality.
Remember that there are two Cores called Windsors that are physically different, the BH-F2, that is a Dual Core with 512 KB Cache L2 per Core and the JH-F2, that is Dual Core with 1 MB Cache L2 per Core. Both could be correct.Quote:

I wonder what kinda heat this thing puts out on air. Not nearly as much as Intel's Q6xxx line I'm sure due to its monolithic nature.

Interesting. That means that tomorrow's AMD TDP of 125W is going to be more hot than today's 125W.Quote:
AMD measures TDP as maximum power draw for a CPU, Intel as maximum real-world draw. AMD is going to move to the Intel measuring scheme
Thank you largon and everyone who trusted me:)
These pictures was taken at Windows Vista event in Akiba lastnight.
Anyone who preordered Vista at a certain PC shop could take part in the event.
Surprisingly for me, any NDA was not required.
The black cap guy is a representative of Nihon AMD, Mr. Doi.
He didn't mention in details, but two notch of CPUon each side implies
that it's a sample chip for Socket F(or its successor)...Barcelona, apparently.
He said that AMD makes efforts for launching within 2007-1H.
To my question, "Possiblity in April-end?", He said "April?...too early:D".
Anyway I hope K8L will be shining on AMD and us within 2007-2Q;)
