AMD's Bobcat and Bulldozer

savantu is starting to post more .. and we get less terrace .... we get more terrace if savantu post less ... anyone has a theory as to why ???

<totally rhetorical question, NOT real numbers>
Which would you rather have:
80% of the performance with 50% of the cost and 50% of the power consumption
100% of the performance with 120% of the cost and 120% of the power consumption
</end rhetorical question>

People keep seeing that 80% number and thinking that it is a compromise. What they don't understand is that by sharing components we are able to add more cores in the same die space and same power budget.

It is by no means 80% of today's performance.

good to know

so to terrace and savantu ... i think its clear that BD will be more powerfull than K10.5
