little about boards AM3+, FM1 and some BD meanings
ANANDTECH COMPUTEX
It's delayed :(
"AMD originally wanted to launch Bulldozer at Computex but performance issues with its B0 and B1 stepping chips pushed back the launch. Now we're looking at a late July launch with B2 silicon, but performance today is a big unknown. Apparently the performance of B1 stepping silicon doesn't look too good."
^ those words are what you would expect from *ntels backyard :P
Bad news... almost 2 extra months of waiting and speculations...
I saw nothing called "news" here, but some frequently rumors just like 6970/5870 before.
I could have said the exact same thing myself by looking at all the rumour pictures of B0 and B1 on the internets. Anand trying to proactively announce something before it happens.
We can waiting and playing with Thubans. So...what about Maxx benchmarks and y-crunchers benchmark?:)
Here is y-cruncher results for you: https://spreadsheets.google.com/spre...CLeCnsYK#gid=0 ;)
Anyone will head for Computex ?
Before the other thread gets flamed to bits - anyone mention 'no sign of AM3+ boards' yet? :p:

We're getting there! :up:
JF, you there ? You remember when you said Q2 launch ? Would be a great time to say "Q2" or "Q3" ;-)
What is strange? The guy is having a vacation in Europe. He was planning it long time ago, so leave him alone ;)
I'm still curious to find out of the single decoder on a module can process a single thread's decoded instructions across multiple pipelines
2nd that.
I'm more interested in single thread performance of this architecture than zillion of cores or modules or whatever. IMO it is more important for every day usual tasks which scale well only in numerous examples. Mega-multi-core is not the ultimate answer. Good balance is the key.
Everyday task run great on my dual core E350 APU and it is 1.6ghz. Everyday task benefit more from Disk I/O speeds. ;)
I haven't found any use in normal use for a fast single thread... but That is just me
way to go tom!

I think that anyone who was hoping to see Bulldozer-based Zambezi processors hit store shelves in conjunction with this year's Computex show in Taipei is going to be disappointed by AMD’s 990FX platform.
To that end, I really don’t see a reason to buy 990FX right now. If your priority is top performance in multi-card configurations, you’re buying an Intel-based platform.
Sorry if already posted,
Charlie says...Bulldozer and Ivy Bridge both delayed a bit
:(
