I hope they don't price this higher than the 2600k!
I'm guessing $249 hopefully cheaper will be its saving grace
It's only savior will be power effeciency
To little to late IMO I think alot of people won't even bother
based on OBR price expectation of around 200 USD, I will likely get an 8350 to max out my platform...and a second 5870!
BD really sux at CFX/SLi.
hmm so this still the ES sample "OR-CO" clocked to 4.0ghz/4.2ghz turbo.
i get about ~6.52 in CB11.5 with my FX-8120 clocked to 4ghz
dont use it...my priority is rendering, video encoding....Still suxx?:)Quote:

Let hope that FX-8350 is not sold at that price, otherwise it will be overpriced compared to ivy bridge
ive been going hard the past yer mining bitcoins. the output of my card even at stock clocks is higher than a current 7970. a second card will double my out put. my current card will be lowered to 1gig but its a hit im willing to take.Quote:

can anyone care to compare Trinity Apu in cinebench r11.5 with the Vishera result?
It's 5-7% IPC and some clocks, it was knewn before by the coolaler tests, now "confirmed" "for FlanK3r" xD funny.
Interesting will be improvement in power consumption.
Its a step forward in my eyes.. Not too bad, a tweaked Bulldozer. I will get one ;)

1.No.
2.No.
First steamroller will be with Kaveri which will be mobile and desktop probably on FM2 socket
Additional memory die on CPU package is almost a given, at least in APUs. But I don't get what eDRAM has to do with that :shrug:Quote:

Yes, check it's instruction set. Piledriver has FMA3, Bulldozer doesn't.Quote:

Still, I want both...Trinity A10 and FX-8350 Vishera. I like multi performance of Vishera. Its not bad step, because we will have +400 MHz gain with the same TDP at the same process technology. And this is not bad. ANd performance? Clock for clokck is a little jump, but always in architecture refresh is little improvement. Look at Ivy Bridge and Sandy Bridge. Its refresh and with smaller technology, still with the manual settings clocks are difference very small at the same clock (3-4%). The same is example Phenom vs Phenom II (but there was lower technology and added bigger L3 etc, but with the same clocks was not big diferenes in performance), or will be Steamroller to Excavator or Nehalem vs Westmere.
Why buy This RevC0 FX it's just a new revision of Zambezi core.Quote:

the 9 stayed.
FX Zambezi OR B2 = FX 8150
FX Zambezi OR-C0 = FX 8350.
the fact the 8 stayed is clearly a sign it's just a newer Revision. (IMO)
Two question arise after thinking this 1 is what happened to Revsion B3 and second will they really be skipping piledriver in Favor of Steamroller then ?
Phenom II X4 965BE and 955BE stayed the same even stepping had changed.Quote:

Wrong
"Agena" DR-B2 = Phenom 9500
"Deneb" RB-C2 = Phenom II 940
"Zambezi" OR-B2 = FX-8150
"Vishera" OR-C0 = FX-8350
Similar schema.
