Steve Jobs proved that if you push people to their limits, you'll see greatness. I don't think AMD's problem is money, it's leadership. They have so much instability in their board and the CEO seems to be a rental position these days. I think all they need is a guy that's not afraid to get into their employees faces from time to time and tell them they aren't cutting it.
Granted I'm way over simplifying things, as Jobs did have a tremendous ability to read people's emotions and be charismatic as well. With that being said, before he went off on the deep end of price gauging etc, he basically changed the entire computing industry with a team 6 of people. If AMD can find a guy like that they'll be competing with Intel again in less than a decade (yeah that seems like a while, but let's be realistic, this architecture sucks, it'll take at least 1 or 2 more to get back on the ipc playing field).
I see a lot of talk about windows 8 helping bd due to better thread managment, seems to be the prefered excuse atm, am just wondering if that will also benifit intel cpus? Probaly not the 2500 with no ht but will better thread managment not help ht enabled cpus like the 2600?
Unlike the bulldozer's case,Windows 7 already handles i7's SMT cores quite well.
How do we know that? Mabey win8 will give both amd and intel a boost?
I tested 4/4 and it isn't faster clock per clock, at least not in the games I tested it with... and to be honest the end user shouldn't be bothered with this fine tuning at all... Only thing that it allows you to do is to clock up higher and drop power consumption... But it will need to be at least at 5Ghz and beyond to give the raw power of the Intels a run for their money... and for that to be usable 24/7, Global Foundries has to make up for their crappy production process.... as they are responsible for the final blow to this new architecture
The weak multi GPU game performance can be easily spotted in 3DMark06 and Vantage as the GPU tests are way too low. Even lower as a Thuban at 4Ghz ( FX8150at 4.6) Anyone ever wondered why we saw so many Heaven benchmarks ? Coz its 99% if not more GPU limited, if you even loose 100 points there on the score, something is terribly wrong...
Solution to this all : harsh price cuts and a better GF production to allow us to run these things over 5Ghz... All the other software recompiling and stuff is encouraging, but most of the image damage has been done... and later this month another thing is coming...
Also most reviewers are testing with ES CPUs that don't seem to clock as high as the retails, mine would run the full test suite at 4.9, though prime stability was at max 4.6-4.7Ghz...
Question : Why do some overclockers switch into d*ckmode when money is involved
Remark : They call me Pro Asus Saaya yupp, I agree
Leeghoofd......"and later this month another thing is coming...", care to elaborate?
As quoted by LowRun......"So, we are one week past AMD's worst case scenario for BD's availability but they don't feel like communicating about the delay, I suppose AMD must be removed from the reliable sources list for AMD's products launch dates"
I guess Leeghoofd talked about SB-E launch coming in 10 days, the 14th

Why does so many people blame GF for bulldozers failures? Even if Bulldozer was at 5GHz+ it wouldn't touch 2600K territories. No company can produce bulldozer at those frequencies. And I doubt any company can make a huge chip with 2 (or 1.2?) billion transistors energy efficient at frequencies around 4GHz, compare with SB-E.

The SOI process technology is rather counter-productive for dense logic structures - certainly not as good as node-matching bulk process.
Official number has been corrected now,it's 1.2B and die size is 315mm^2. Bulldozer is server oriented chip and a lot of stuff was made with that target in mind. That's why it's somewhat larger die. Also as Hornet said, intel always had higher cache density versus Kx generation.
Where is that official correction?
