Nah, clearing inventory for socket F which will be released soon.

Great job with the chip OP, too bad you can't OC it. Personlly I'd like to see how well it does on air and phase, dice scores are always fun to gawk at too.

All those saying AMD=dead, you keep forgetting they'll have thier .65 process in volume in Q1 2007, that is only about 3 months or so from the launch date of Conroe. I don't think they'll be able to take the lead back on performance but I'm pretty sure reduce it significantly, at the same price point vs. Intel counterparts. Things will get interesting again when K8L comes out in late 2007 for AMD, til' then they'll have to compete on price I think, which should help keep Intel prices from getting to high. Either which way it sounds like I'll be able to get a good chip for a reasonable price, go competition go!!

finally, the results everybody has been waiting for its over...

i guess XS is the first to receive the news?

Nice results on the SuperPI run! :D

What's all the fuss about Conroe for anyhow? Intel has had the better part of two years to develop new cores. There lead will last until AMD's next architecture comes out (K10?), then you'll all be spending money to switch again. LOL...

everyone knew it would pwn at SuperPi, the question most people have is overclocking and games, and it looks like we will be waiting a little longer for that to be answered.

Any chance you can lower the multi - or are you stuck with the multi?

Would love to see how far off this would be compared to the Conroe

EDIT: Just saw you earlier post - too bad you can't change multi - just like me...

Holy damm stock @

:eek: VictorWang delivers! My life has literally be ruined the past 3 days waiting for Conroe results- thanks for putting me out of my misery. :p:

Let's see some 3D!

aboard pi_32m, starts sisoft.

According to the preview from Anandtech 2.66GHz does beat FX60@2.8GHz in games and other applications.

That is infreaking sane!

I see the half of this thread saying amd am2 got owned?
may i ask where i already can buy this and can you give me proof of this?
I don't give a :banana::banana::banana::banana: about amd getting pwned or not..
But so far nobody is getting pwned except the previous generation of cpu wich is already there for years..

---

Agreed. This is Intels next generation of CPU's, We havent seen crap from AMD yet... which sucks... but nice work... this processor looks nice.

Now pi_32m running

Very nice work VW, nice indeed. This is the model I'm waiting on.

Do what I'm doing, wait till 2008 to buy a new rig ^_^.

Do you guys think



it is time



to buy stock in Intel??? (looks like the stock price has gone down a lot)

what do you think?

Go ahead, I want AMD's to go down a tad anyway so I can pick more up. :p

How is Intel achieving the superpi advantage at lower speeds like that though?

This is a CPU monster!!!And no CB...
No chance for AMD to beat this beast:eek:

short AMD, margin buy Intel. and then wait till AMD's 65nm come out, then do it again in reverse order.
Rambus's stock was around $15 before they signed w/ AMD 3 months ago. Now it is around $38.79. I also look into OEM stocks. specially Dell.
