It's a little disappointed that turbo will take no effect when all 6 cores are loaded.Quote:

There are a lot of application that load 4 cores but not 6, so, this choise is good for me.Quote:

Hmm i'm not really overwhelmed by those benches tbh. I'd like to see some benches at 4GHz for a good compare.
Yeah, it's a good decision, imo. Totally makes sense.Quote:

nice info about turbo, thnaks :)
A comparison with my precious:
2.6Ghz 620

+61%
Turbo will be good for people that dont overclock, but make the cpu unstable if its not shut down when we oc (well the guys that push a bit higher at least). Also if you are overclocking youd prolly set the voltage to a higher level, as an example like I have mine set at 1.57v at 4.2ghz now ......with turbo on wheres it going to send that one core? 4.6ghz at 1.63v?? It will be interesting to test though.
Im particularly interested to see if we will be able to set affinity for certain cores, ex. 4 cores on a game 2 cores for background tasks.
I guess that the effect of AMD's turbo might be maximized by manually overclocking. When finding out the max voltage the cpu can suffer, control the "turbo voltage" slightly less than max voltage, then efficiency will be maximized.Quote:

Most games will GAIN performance because of the turbo. It`s only encoding apps and those that rely on all cores (including WCG) etc that would lose performance.Quote:

Unreal Engine 3 can utilise 8 cores (threads) as well.Quote:

3.59 vs 3.61 ...But what i know, efectivity 12 threads Gulftown is under 6x (5.56x at x64) !
Speedup is nothing but the multi score divided by the single score.Quote:

I don't care about stock clock benches regardless of the turbo feature.
where the OC results lol. we fine tune this 6 shooter for max performance.
though turbo is nice for non Ocer's and single/dual threaded things
Considering the chip appears to perform almost exactly as one would expect a Phenom II + 2 more and it's running 50% more cores and cache for at most 31% more TDP I'd expect it won't exactly be a beast of an OC'er, but we'll see.Quote:

AMD Brings Phenom II X6, Eyefinity6 to PAX
9:10 PM - March 27, 2010 by Devin Connors - source: Tom's Hardware US
Intel got its six core CPU to market first, but AMD's Phenom II X6 offerings are just around the corner.
While Nvidia might be stealing the show so far at PAX East, AMD is here with some new hardware of their own. While a lot of what was revealed is still under embargo, here's some clarification on what's coming in the next several months.

under $300, wow thats awesome!Quote:
AMD did confirm that its six-core processors will be under $300, including a Black Edition variant, which puts them at the same price point as Intel's Core i7 860, 920 and 930 and well below the $1000 asking price of Intel's Core i7 980X Extreme. Without getting too specific, AMD talked about several features present in the Phenom II X6 CPUs that line up well with features found in the competition.
