Sorry for never having seen an ES with specific product branding and significant technical differences to the corresponding retail product before... :rolleyes:

Thanks for that info.

Anyone with a "real" E6400 to compare effect of cache-size on a possible performance hit out there? :)

Can you run the same game benchmarks as Anand? Maybe we can see if it really is 20%+ improvement in games as well.

They don't have the same model Anand tested, overclocked the fsb would make a difference and you wouldn't ge the same numbers.

great result there !!

but you got competition, will bench that Yonah 3.4ghz with crossfire today or later, maybe I can compete with this score :p

Now you're being niave.

I don't trust intel's claims or tests. I *DO* trust what people on here show us. Don't get it twisted.

I'm no fanboy, I go with what's best at my time of upgrading. :nono:

That's cheaper than the 3 ghz P4 was, and about the same price as the 2.8C was at that time.

We all knew the northwoods spanked the AXP.

Nice revision yourself.

Now again, can we get back on topic?

Multi-task with a Sempr(0)n and then com back and talk to me? Better yet, Do some LAME becnhmarks with Intel updated patches and some for most Video apps, no, that's right, only Games and Science marks counts, right? Oh wait, lets overclock both.

Conroe is just following on to, the ass kicking Dothan and Yonah are ALREADY doing while AMD Fans burry their heads in the sand and pretend otherwise. If this is too painful for ya', Please stay on the AMD side of the forum, I'll not bother you there.

Bull, I've posted hundreds links here to GamePC, Anandtech, Hot Hardware and about 40 other sites showing A64 vs P4C. There are Fanboys here who don't accept that ANY AMD processor was EVER slower at anything than anything Intel ever made=P These same folks downplayed any advantage any Intel processor even might have or had, be better SIMDs, MultiTasking with optimized software, Overclocking or anything else.

It is NOT off topic to point out that even when Conroe ships and kicks the snot out of AMD, folks like you will be here to make excuses say things like wait until next year or etc...........

Read Anand's first Opteron review and then tell me about revisionist history LOL!?

Prove me wrong when Conroe has been on the market for a couple of weeks?

Yes:banana: that's what i wanted to see. If FCC can do this on Intel MB then we definetly got room for higher FSB when enthusiast MB's will arive.
I bet your Am3 cpu score with higher FSB increased. I know with dothan every 25mhz + i got 1K more cpu score. Post some benchmarks with higer Fsb

Donnie, if you wanna continue this pointless arguement, we can take it to pm's.

This thread doesn't need to be crapped on like it has from various people like yourself.

Last thing XS needs is FCG and the rest of the guys with conroes saying forget this and keeping results private.

I'm so happy for you FCG! Your score is above 20.000 so Aquanox2:Revelation will run smoothly on your system. Yay!

OK FCG, it's your turn to gain back your AM3 WR from kyosen.:D

Why did the AXP suck compared to the P4? FSB bandwith. Hypertransport and the on die memmory controler changed everything.

Congrats on the WR FCG. One thing to remember is that the Conroe EE should not be out until later this year, not in june or etc. I also want to see real world game and application (not MS word rofl!) benchmarks.

I also like to see Intel and AMD competing, because in the end we all win. As great as Conroe seems to be, until it is out in retail, we will not honestly know if it can dethrone the FX-60s in 3D03/05/06, but the fact that it can ends up being good for all of us. I only hope that AMD's next generation of CPUs also gets as much attention and coverage.

Congrats man! :D

I wonder how many Conroes are sold just by this thread! I know I'm getting one :D

why are the gfx- and cpuscores not available?

Never a truer word spoken!

If only more people shared the same viewpoint.

nobody knows, i talked with some of the guys last night. we believe we may be exceeding a score on the CPU which prevents the calculation of either. i would imagine that the benchmark writers never expected to see wuch high scores and therefore did not code to calculation to go that high. :confused:

I get this too if i have a wicked FSB. It seams that issue is not in speed of CPU is the high FSB that AM3 have problems with. It's realy weird issue. Anyhow those are killer scores FCC. Let see some more benchmarks

how much faster was the conroe clocked than the previous run??

i think i have seen an 18k CPU score before, dothan if i remember right

it does seem to be more related to intel setups than amd for some reason:confused:

and your probably right about they never expected these scores, look at your screenshots, you can play games created 4-5 years ago with high detail:)
