bad news, good luck to simon. still have pics of us in taipei

Sorry, your math is not right.


And for the other guys talking about 256-bit AVX, here is an extenisve list of all of the client apps that I am aware of that will utilize 256-bit AVX (please...

Interesting. I was mountain biking with a friend today who works for EA. He was telling me that Battlefield 3 is one of the products that his team is handling. I told him he needs to buy some...

I don't believe that is true.

Don't know for sure. As I understand it, as long as they are all the same clock speed, there shouldn't be an issue, but it all comes down to what your vendor BIOS will support.Just because it is...

I am gonna take the under on this one. FP benchmarks are less interesting except in the HPC world. ~90% of what your CPU is doing all day long is integer. FP has long latencies (deeper...

some options are: one is fake, both are fake. either option is probable



Then why do you keep reading it and posting it on multiple sites. Based on his comment that amd doesn't know when it...

Everyone here needs to understand that marketing =/= PR.



The room was full of press guys, I was there. Anything that came out of the room was shared with everyone in the press. It was all...

I don't buy that. There are always new steppings, typically every 6 to 9 months. However, new architectures have big increases in performance. Speed bumps are typically 3-5%. That sounds...

No, TDP is exactly the same for server and client parts.

I know what SKU is in it and I know the prices. Can't reveal obviously, but based on our 6100 series prices that could be ~$15-$97,000. Give or take a dollar here or a dollar there.

We have been saying no benchmarks until launch for the 5 years I have been with the company. I have said that on dozens of forums, including this one, for quite some time. It has nothing to do with...

Socket C32 will not have 4-core bulldozer, the 4-core socket C32 are still Lisbon parts.

All benchmarks prior to launch will not be representative.

All benchmarks that did not come from AMD will not be representative.

Anyone that says they have bulldozer for sale prior to launch...

I am not sure that the gigabyte chart is correct. Or complete. That is all I will say.

My stock answer on anything prior to launch is that it probably isn't true.

However to respond to "how can it beat a 5690", let's look at a couple of things:

1. This says "cryptography...

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.

these are not given to end users.

Why do you need to know that?

ES chips are property of AMD. If the person that they were give to is no longer using it, they are not allowed to pass it on to someone else.

Actually all of our NDAs are created equal.

Why are we tight lipped? We always have been on CPUs. When you sell the majority of your product through large OEMs you don't want to disrupt their...

Just got it back from the shop, so it is time to burn off the vacation calories.

But I guess that even though we are at 14+ days of 100F heat here in austin so far this year, some things are...

Beats me. I am server, not client. Since the 16th is a Saturday I am planning to be on my bike, enjoying the blistering 100F+ weather in Austin.

the date changed to q3, so there is a date




AMD is not supporting BD on AM3.

There is not a bug. I am sorry that you can't comprehend this fact. There is nothing more I can say because you just aren't getting it.
