Which is related to Nehalem, the KICS definition works better for a case like this and besides this is an ES hard to swallow easily :D.Quote:

Its a wait and see case i think, particularly interested in the results Movieman will get...

Well if I'm reading those graphs right the Yorkfield is faster in Call Of Duty 4 and the i7 in World in Conflict. So we have a 1000$ cpu and a 500$ cpu and they are 50% 50% in games so far. Also remember that World in Conflict is one of those strange games that don't scale that good whatever you throw at it. Maybe Intel have made this architecture to address exactly those areas where the Yorkfield didn't shine. Or maybe yeah this is just another P4, the evidence to that is starting to mount up also...
On point! BUT, it does give us an idea of how great a game engine could be if the damn thing was highly multi-threaded. We will see some amazing things happen to K10 and Nehalem when Windows 7 and DX11 show up. Right now though, 8 threads is pretty useless outside of Vantage LOL.Quote:

Dude, we write it that way because we speak it that way, ie. "Today is October twelfth two-thousand eight." Also you Brits are the ones that brought it over in the first place so blame yourself! LOLQuote:

Now only if those X58 motherboards are "reasonably" priced and not $399.99, it would make sense to wait for Core i7. I'll bet good money there will be motherboards more expensive than the Core i7 2.66Ghz 940.
No, I do not think so. What you said earlier is right with SMT ON performance decreases by a significant margin whereas if the opposite is done an increase is seen as an enormous step. It must be conflicts or the software does not have full multi threading support, sincerely unless I have it and do some tests,no clue at all.Quote:

We do month,date and then year.
You do date,moth and then year.
Easy solution to this:
Write it out as October 13,2008 and settled.
Now as to us taking our heads out of our asses, we did that in 1776 when we broke away from England with it's repressive laws and founded this country.:rofl:
That's sig worthy. :up:Quote:

However in the UK we use the world time reference date format for everything and when we speak we say both ways USA and World.
Just to be clear about things.

Surely you mean the 13th of October, 2008. In order as it should be old bean, Chocks away.Quote:

Indeed. It was already well know that tri-channel would bring close to 0 improvement in desktop apps. Like always, people with too high expectations.Quote:

Simply incredible.
Sorry for the OT :p:
Box is supposed to contain a cpu, some memory and a motherboard with 1366 pins.. I wonder what thats all about? :wasntme:Quote:
