AMD Shanghai is officially out

[Hornet331]

shanghai is running on ecc ram 800mhz and old HT 1,000mhz. phenom (agena) is faster then Barcelona by some.

I doubt faster memory will bring much for consumer apps, since beside from data compression programs thers virtually no need for high bandwidth. And since most of this test seem to be quite unaffected by bandwidth they give a good impression of what to expected from desktop apps (imho).

How much the higher NB/L3 speed is, i don't know but well see about that.

edit:
ops i missed justapost reply, he pretty much confirmed that faster NB/L3 speed only affects certain apps.

btw justapost could you run a quick test on games, faster L3 should help there a bit. (low res so that you dont run into a gpu limit, different NB speeds)
