AMD's 3GHz K10 to break 30,000 3DMark06 (Inq)

[FlawleZ]

Still your C2D score is not where it should be , ie 16x shouldn't beat 8x with lower CPU power in apples to apples comparison


Beat yes it is higly possible but can not be certain ,,, 30K is totally different league

And so is the P4 vs A64. Fugger is probably right, however hardly anyone actually runs 3DMark05 in seriousness anymore. It's all 06 it seems. Inquirer is notoriously BS, so I'm not believing one bit. But no one should think for even a minute that its an impossible situation. Improbable, yes.

Let's just sit back and wait a couple weeks, shall we?

i am not talking about AMD vs Intel ,, i am talking about 2900 CF that wont break 30K on air ,, for me 30K on air is impossible even with Nehalem ,, much more CPU power will result in low gain in SM2/SM3 ,,, 50% more powerful CPU will only do 20% gain SM2 and 10% SM3 , slightly more slightly less
So a 4.5GHZ Qx run with 2900CF will do say 21K
9K SM2
9.5K SM3
6K CPU
give it 50% more CPU power , better drivers , PCI-e 2.0
12K SM2 33% gain
12.5K SM3 30% gain
9K CPU 50% gain
so even that scenario wont break 30K ,,, it is just impossible to do it with 2900XT and i am not talking about K10


any way it is only two weeks and people will buy whatever perform better after OC with respect to price ,,, so if 2900XT and K10 can do 30K even if 05 imagine what a 9800GTX will do !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

K10 will be successful. The Phenom will poison intel to the core.

People trying to calculate 3D MARK cpu scores and SM2.0 and 3.0 scores from a cpu they know absolutely nothing about makes me cry with laughter.

PMSL I've watched for months as guys have bragged about they're C2D's and now these same guys are squirming like nobody's buisness about the fact that K10 is gonna render their C2D's extinct

It's just a shame everything has to end like this...........who am I kidding, no it's not....

Muhahahahhahahahhahahahahaahahaaaaaa

to a real QUAD-CORE

Agreed. Well many things changed with the new hardware, maybe AMD developed it combined to give a super boost in performance, AMD has motherboard, CPU, GPU combined = boost up.

I sure hope the info is correct, but,... with all this new, untested hardware, I fear a much sadder, banal explanation.... ...anyone ever heard of a 3Dmark glitch?

I was thinking about that too. That would vastly increase its gains and many things in the article that he had written yesterday are not reliable.

this is funnies blah blah in this thread! only naive teenager can think like that!

So definitely you have a much better explanation for all of this, just show your thesis. Willing to share it?

So? Maybe K10 is more powerful than Nehalem is

See we do not and WILL not know for sure about this until the thing is released. That is the simple and plain fact. Assuming that Intel's newer chip is going to be better than AMD's new chip is a wrong move to make IMO since we don't know enough to say that.

Gotta wait to know, it isn't that much longer before we know.

QFT but no 30k with 2900CF

[strange|ife]

dude its the inq. And this kids laptop was stolen? by whom the NDA thugs?

at any rate K10 is gonna be sweet, and so will penyrn/wolfdale

but yeah that had to of been mark05


I would like to see AMD gain ground next year
