Interesting... this is something I had not seen... so AMD is adjusting cycle latency to account for clock in L3.... wow, they are really trying squeeze as much from it as they can....Originally Posted by informal
Latency is a physical manifestation of the design/processing of the chip, it is the time required for the request/read and/or write to complete the job, this is temporally fixed, for worst case the CPU sets that to x number of cycles such that X*period > min time for latency, interesting..... if this is true, then these chips will be difficult to overclock, I wonder if they are giving options to increase the L3 latency in BIOS?
