!!!The Ultimate K8L Thread 2007 & Beyond!!!

[cumec]

New Infos from AMD @ Cebit about the TDP of K10.
The K10 will come in two versions. One is in 95W and the other in 68w.
and the codename is now K10 and not K8L.

[cumec]

Did AMD show of the chip at Cebit? Any benchmarks?

at least not before the locked doors

Should see the start of the K10 w00t train the 2nd week of April if not sooner.

Intel have their price cuts scheduled for the week before from what I see in the channel to try and steal their thunder. All I can say about the new AMD chips is expect some fun real soon now.

Long time no see dude, thanks for the info.

On a sidenote, thanks for your work back in the days, loved your A7N8X modded bioses

If you're the same guy who posts at Aces , you definetly sound more knowledgeable there.

Well, i'm pretty sure you sound retarded in every other place as you sound in here...

[Bei Fei]

I hope that the new AMD chip is good. I am very close to going over to Intel.

I am very close to going over to Intel.

it's too early
- wait at least for the end of August - prices will drop, average level of performance will up
now it's not a time to buy power system - in several months it will turn into nothing

go jump on the bandwagon, hopefully you don't mind accepting its soon fate

[stealth17]

April? Is the NDA up in April? I didn't get a chance to read all 32 pages, but what is the official release date (or is there one)?

I'm waiting for a good time to jump on their stock, the time may be very soon if this will be released in April.

[perkam]

Chip will be launched Fall...but there might be performance previews simultaneously with the R6xx product launch, which is confirmed to be late April, early May.

You use that word very often looking at your posts history.However , what also surfaced it that it is far more aplicable to you rather than to the guys you were replying.

What would happen if AMD released an inferior product to c2d..? how long can they make it?

It wouldn't be the first time.

[akaBruno]

Or the last. heheheh

They would probably get bought out by another company.

[SepheronX]

naa, but really, this K8L sounds good and all, but its all speculation. I mean, I am happy with competition, as it forces 1 company to drop their prices. But in the end, all it is, is better benchmark results, and nothing more. My computer gives me enough scores in games that I can play whatever I want, and same goes for doing desktop stuff. Heck, I was happy with my old AMD Athlon 3000+ winchester when I first got it long ago. I am happy with my C2D, but It just doesn't seem that huge of a jump. Neither will it feel when K8L comes out.

All this is, is to get more money from us. I rather have, instead of paying tons-o-money for K8L or Intels upcoming Quad cores, I rather spend 70 bucks on a X2 3600+ or some alternative thats cheaper.

a very very long time, even at their absolute worst. They still sell two orders of magnitude CPUs than IBM does

You just speculated there yourself?


I'm still here, playing the wait and see game.

Just saying what AMD said. LOL

What are you, a parrot?

[MAS]

read news. At first, Intel prices will drop (266USD for Q6600), at second Intel speeds up 45nm production

but i don't know what intel product will be competitive to K10 4x4?

the rumours are 2xAgena FX 2,9GHz == 10 000 3dmark06 cpumarks score (by w0mbat)

That may be the case with all the other guys as you mentioned, but cleary not the case with you... you make it extremely hard.

Here here! I'm too poor for a quad-core and i just bought a PSP so a C2D is out of the question

Which post of mine did bother you to such an extent ?

LAWL i DID indeed! oops. Yeah, but the speculation is that the company wants more money from us, not that K8L is good or not. I have no doubt that will be good, its just that is the performance difference really gonna be enough that its justifiable to go run out, and spend another couple hundreds of dollars over our current Conroe's and Kentsfields? Same I say about Intels upcoming processors. Really not that justifiable. I know I am gonna keep my E6300 until Quad core becomes mandatory (or upgrade along the way to E6350, and sell my e6300 for a bit).
