Time to show the goods !
Hot Chips is a technology forum. We will be there talking about how we are solving some of the issues with today's compute through the architecture, we'll break down some of the components and take the audiesnce through them. There will be no "marketing", there will be no benchmarks, no pricing, no launch details - it is not that kind of event.Quote:

I still think if we can get one of these dual 12 core MC systems up to 3+GHz it would make for an interesting system..:D
Are you really going to let this childish smack talking go on? Lesser people have been banned for less.Quote:

Now to be honest I'd be a little happier if Francois stayed out of the AMD threads and JF-AMD stayed out of the Intel threads.
The problem is that in some ways they are alike.
They are both proud of what their respective companies make and want to share what they can with all of us.
Am I goint to ban them? NO.
Have I in the past sent PM's to them asking them to cool it in the other companies thread? Yes..
Yea, sometimes it's tough being an admin here..:shrug:
The Intel people and the AMD people usually have same back ground, same passion and same schools for their kids ... we are the same people ... living in the same areas ...Quote:

in 1999, Francois and Mike G from AMD where in Helsinky, to work on a famous Bench together ... and compete ... here is the equation
Francois x (intel) + Mike x (AMD) = 2 drunk guys having fun in helsinky in the evening ... sharing stories and so on ... making fun of each others mistake on the code ...
(Link to the engine shared with Max Payne, the credits: http://www.answers.com/topic/max-payne )
If you guys could see how we have cafe ALL THE TIME, or burgers together, may be you could realize how those "I am blue" or "I am green" are silly.
One of my good Buddy is QA manager for NV ...
We are the same and some time, humour is really humour, and you are looking for hate where there are none.
Best regards,
Francois, back to the subject
I do see your point. Well, it's a tough pill to swallow that you guys apparently don't have an agenda, posting here. In the end the companies you belong to compete for the same customer base, so it can't be helped.
well, if i had an agenda ... i would certainly not post with my ID here ... I play honnest with you, always ... never hide behind any fake IDs ...Quote:

(In this case of me posting in this thread, it was really a good joke for movie man, nothing more ... some joke into this world can not hurt if we are all honnest)
I beleive you but many here see you coming into AMD threads and JF-AMD going into Intel threads as high company employees with an agenda.Quote:

Ahh, is that what it was.Quote:

He definitely sounds like it.
So we can only expect a litle part of BD architecture in that tech forum ?Quote:

Especially when it's not a refresh, but a full new one.
I think, you'll talk about CMT and multithread, and what's is going for near futur +5 years in software. And what do choice CPU builders ? More cores or more better cores or less better core and huge better number of core ?
But will AMD deliver more information about the new exec unit ? The number of pipe stage, ALU and AGU, the wide of evry bus, is full support for avx, how will be supported avx in intel compilator and others, SSE5 is or not dead, if there is the needed improved update on dynamic branching that intel own far better than AMD from core 2 duo ?
i guess it's gonna be a exclusive memory cache design again but why not maybe why not hell, you choiced to change ? Victim buffer improved ? shared ?
I know you can't tell evrything, i'm just asking what are subjects are going to be unveiled on Hot chips.
And when is next post in your blog :D
And congrats for ATI works in discrete market :up:
when i first saw dr whos sub headline i thought 'damn bulldozer must awesome'. still very good joke mm
I have made exactly one comment on an Intel thread, about Beckton. I said "looks hot."Quote:

Yes, I went over the slides last night. There will be data on ALU/AGU, extensions, front end, Flex FP and more.Quote:

People just shouldn't expect Hot Chips to be a big unveiling. It is sharing details. Just don't want people getting to hyped on it.
While I hate his posts almost as much as yours, it's obvious that his tone is completely different. I'm yet to find a single post by JF-AMD that's not blatant AMD advertising. Please do everyone a favor and learn from Hans de Vries.Quote:

otherwise, I prefer to have people from within the company around. Having access to people in the know, who can explain issues is a damn site better than listening to the daily trolling between fanbois.
I think its cool having actual insiders posting here too. They tend to have their hands tied as to exact details and releasing info early, but still nice to have people that have a better picture then the average consumer to draw knowledge from.
I would tell that the "AMD advertising" - that's exactly what everybody asks JF-AMD here to give us more info!Quote:

well, In my case, I overclock since 1986 on PC ... my 486DX33 became a DX40, and my DX2-66 became DX-80Mhz ... far before I joined intel in 1997 ...Quote:

And don't worry, you are doing fine, it is good to try to share your passion in any form it is. You are part of Server division, your tone is a little bit more serious, but it is ok. I think we all should be allowed to share and speak (11th article of the French constitution, 1st Amendement of the US constitution )
Some time, people need to learn that it is ok to do not agree, arguements and different opinions/diversity is what made great civilizations.
I wish we could hate less and love more ... (I sound like a hippie now ... lol :rofl:)
Please do not hate us because we have a Blue or Green badge, take us as we are, we respect you, please respect us, and then, we can have nice discussion where it would be easier for us to provide legitimate insites, when we can.
Let's drop the guns and go back to the topic, Bulldozer seems to have some nice features, something different, I don 't know it is good or bad, but new stuffs are always exciting, and in the worst case for me, if it is good, i got goooood reason to ask more cool stuff to my boss :) :up: , and that can't be bad ! it means more fun for the passionated engineers.
Bring it ! :)

we just need to allow anybody to express himself, and learn how to tollerate different point of views, and allow humour some time. If we are here, it is because we are sharing the same passion, and we have to do it with respect and agree to accept the different point of views, it does not means you have to agree, just allow it. No need to go balistic when you see an opinion different of yours, it is just different, and this is what make human kind great, we can share, argue, and act based on many point of view ... The best thing is never the one proposed by one very loud guy, alone in his corner, people like Albert Einstein or Louis Pasteur did not become who they are just by doing their stuff in their corner, Albert had to learn all about the other's point of view before becoming a Genious ... we all have to accept input from other people to get smarter.Quote:

When I was younger, i lost my temper on a SETI forum, well, I was an idiot then, and I really try to keep the debat higher now ...
so, bare with us, don't make fun of this, this is sincere, let's get the human kind scale challenge done ... crack the cancer, find alien radio waves, let's do something usefull.
So, let's hear the cool stuff about Bulldozer!
im very, very curious for second generation of Bulldozer, know, its long future (2012/2013), but...firstly second generation :-)
