if this will be real, than is not much good. Because PII redesign x8 at 32nm and simillary clocks could be 100% better!And die size would be the same. (Thuban 1100T working behind rendering only at 3300 MHz and hit 5.95 points, this FX worked at 4200 MHz and achieve "only" 6.87 with +900 MHz clock and +2 more cores...So, wtf?:confused:)
PS: Thuban at 3.9 GHz has 7.02 points....
Thanks for sharing your thoughtsQuote:

If it is real, Then AMD are shooting themselves in the foot, by releasing an under-performing CPU, that is not what everyone wanted to be! I for one don't think this is real.
hey I found the die is very different compare to the earlier one, isn't it? (L2 cache become smaller or the core bigger? L3 significantly bigger than before?)

it looks like the green pictures are just taller than the pink version which looks nearly perfectly square
so how they came to the measurements may still be wrong
Do you think AMD will be releasing a chip they call high-end performance desktop CPU and which brings back the FX name again if it was slower than the predecessor? One hint about performance is the rumored retail price.Just compare this price of roughly ~300$ with Thuban 1100T price of 190$.IF you count in that usually the new stuff is priced a tad bit higher ,the difference is from 40% to 57%. Performance should be in line with this.Quote:

AMD needs a chip that is 38% faster than Thuban @ 3.3Ghz,on average, to take the performance crown (until SB-E comes). I believe they will do just that(as literary have the chip that is around ~1.30x-1.5x faster than Thuban in client workloads).
the other screen is showing a high voltage for lower clock speed. 1.414 for 2.8ghz and 1.296 for 4.2ghz. -_-

That would a nice score if it was only 4 cores :)
I wouldn't be suprised if BD FX8 doesn't run far away from X6 in fpu intensive applications. Given the BD shares it fpu they will have lower core scaling then x6. If you compare it to a deneb at 3,7GHz which gets 4,35points. There is a 50-60% speedup for the same number of fpu ex-units.Quote:

Keep in mind Cinebench is very FPU dependent as with all 3d apps. That being said we know BD only has 4 FPU's.Quote:

that's only in 256 bit mode is there 4.Quote:

it was also said that a single core can use both 128 bit FPU if needed.

When compared to 10h processors bulldozers FPU is more specialized and balanced.
Perhaps everyone should consider that AMD did not release these benchmarks and they might not even be real. Nothing I have seen, to date, has been representational of actual performance.
Was considered and discussed from what I saw...............you have to realize speculation is all we have to hold on to after numerous BD delays and poor performance rumors, not to mention the 90 day mark announced at Computex is hitting next Tuesday and not a peep from AMD. If BD is ever released or official performance data is released the speculation will stop but not until then. These delays are not looking good and no word from AMD, so the speculation will weigh on the negative side of performance until AMD proves otherwise in my opinion. Even you left doubt hanging with "might not even be real. " .Quote:

good answer ! AMD say nothing. The only thing we have are rumours and no words from AMD, only silence ! It's time to give us real informations instead of "might be" !Quote:

then it is as well to say nothing ;)

ok ..... then how many does it cost for informations ??? :DQuote:
