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

[Zytek_Fan]

It`s an English forum.

It's an international English speaking forum.

[Fraggle]

Of course, excuse me. Same point though.

[cky2k6]

so what, international users of this forum should be forced to take an english test to post here? if the post gets the point across, then cut them some goddamn slack.

exactly. We all need to use one language to communicate and English is the obvious choice. That doesn't mean that we need to be universally proficient, nor does it give any native English speaker reason to play grammar police.

Good God, seems like a lot of you are on your periods, If not, you all seem to be acting the way my wife does once a month and thats what she blames it on.

You`re right, it`s the same in real life as well - there is no need to bother. In fact, who can tell me why spelling and grammar was ever standardised?

Agreed but that's no excuse for folks acting like jerks though (not that you are acting like one).

Example; "magic marketing Intel with there nice v8 is it still needs fb-dimm" and this coming from an AMD Fan ( I suspect) because I never read anything like this when AMD launched their 4 X 4. There was a perfect BS marketing schlock job.

I know he meant "their" and not "there" hell, who cares? As long as the message is understood, I agree, cut em' some slack? Lord knows I've screwed up enough LOL! I disagree with what he was saying, NOT how he said it.

Playing grammar police among individuals for whom English is, quite possibly, their second, third or even fourth language? Just drop it already, and open a grammar rant on Speak Freely.

I believe you misunderstood my post completely. I agree with you, and we have more than our fair share of jackoffs haunting this board as it is. The last thing people here need is another reason to launch into sophomoric arguments and name-calling.

[twizttid13]

Who cares, we are past it. Back to topic please. Not to be an or anything.

[Fraggle]

Sorry :-)

I'm sorry I meant to show I was agreeing as well, my bad, honestly! I had just asked at least 3 guys to leave out Intel if they only wanted to talk about AMD. If they invited a reply, they should expect one. I'm saying it bluntly, I agree with you 100%.

I'll go back and edit my post to make it sounds that way.

[LordEC911]

It doesn't really matter what the hell it's for, if any of us can make use of it. I wouldn't buy it because I can't fit it in my Budget anyway. Now, I'll gladly stay on my Desktop and I hope you do the same

After 4 X 4 and the rip-off it represents, complete with Suckers buying it. Others here trying to complain about this board is a bad joke IMHO! All it took to out do 4 X 4 was or as I call it "$ X $" was a single Quad Core that AMD complains about that's not Native. I honestly hope K-10 kicks ass, the whole market needs it to.

So a hint for you: Don't pretend to know something you're clueless about. Also, it doesn't take acting like an A-Hole or Jerk to get your point across. If you disagree just post what you disagree with. Barkie is a Server Processor and that's why I linked. Wait, you do know Barcelona is a Server Processor, right? Intel has already talked about other workstation 2P boards with DDR2 and DDR3 BTW.

WTF are you talking about?
V8 with literally more then twice the computing power of 4x4 isn't even killing it...

I'm starting to wonder why you keep making stuff up...
Do you do any research at all? Or just try to post as much BS about AMD as you can without any remorse?

?????????????? Just case you missed it. I already posted that 4 X 4 can't out do one Core2 Quad , where you come up this post? Why do you think all of the AMD fans are trolling me? What was I supposed to have made up? 4 X 4 is a ripoff as I said and you just quoted.

[Donnie27]

Even if you’re not a native English speaker there’s not excuse for BS like;

My post;

Some of what K10 will be up against!

Not just for show since this baby features two FSB's.
Last thing I saw said Oct, I'd believe Nov if not Dec at best

Turning into.

WOOT THIS WILL BE UP AGAINST 4 X16 SLOTS WOOOOOOOOO INTEL IS THE PWNAGE, MY PEN** GOT 2 TIMES AS LARGER AFTER I READ THIS NEWS ABOUT INTELS 1337 PLATFORM WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO AND IT GOT 2 FSBs COMPARED TO THE CRAPPY HT LINKS AMD GOT ZOMG
just lock both barcie threads, they're full of garbage

Link?

[Donnie27]

Link?

Oh the other thread!

....did but thought, WFT, why not?

I could have edited to at least 8 different stories 4 X 4 vs. V8 or even vs one C2 Quad that still pretty much whips 4 X 4 but didn't. There's nothing new there and will not be until Barkie ships.

Just today I linked to a V8 system with 4 PCI-E X16 slots

Did it ever crossed your brain that virtually none of the SW they tested there was designed to scale to 8 cores ? Most barely handles 4.

right and if you make a comment than it's always fanboy's ....

simple comment:

AMD 4x4: bad marketing specially because they were always talking about native quadcore and naging about mcm from Intel, even worse because Nvidia screwed it with there power hungry chipset not to mention the power hunger of the k8 before revision F3. the pricedrop made it much more interesting.

Intel skulltray: Trying to make something that has no market just because the competitor had "something", destroyed all possibilities for buying this due to the FBdimm and the worse scaling on multicore-multisocket.

at the end 790 chipset + socket F k10 might be the best choice. Power consumption ok and no need of fbdimm. we'll see end of the year.

and for the clueless and stay at you're desktop. just check my sig what i am working on. so i do have an idea what is going on in the cpu world.

Then just say what the hell you disagree about and please leave the the other bull$hit out of it? What's wrong with all of this, you're _______ crap anyway?

Now that that's out of the way, let's see if we can talk? AMD's marketing was bad, two fold. First I agree with you about the Native Crap-O-La it was ALMOST bad as Intel's "So fast it's not fair" BS when Athlon64 was Kicking the crap out of P4. The Native talk looked sad because here was the same folks using two Sockets to combat one so called inferior MCM. We know ONE MCM was faster than 4 X 4 in most cases, used less power, put off less heat and just a better deal in most folks' opinion.

Crap-O-La marketing part #2 It was marketed towards something called "Enthusiast Gamers". In others words, folks with more money than Brains. It amazes me that some so call Computer Savvy folks can be so blind at times. There aren't any games made to take advantage of anything like 4 X 4.

AMD says it plans to release enthusiast focused processors and platforms

AMD announced today during a conference call that a new platform will be created and focused on just for the enthusiast desktop market. AMD has long been driving high-performance features on its Athlon family of processors and according to a number of surveys, most gamers are swaying towards AMD systems rather than Intel systems for gaming, or other application intense applications. Called 4x4, AMD's new platform brings along dual-socket motherboards

I'll just say that most of that was true in the BC days, but that's absolute BS in the AC. Oh, that's Before Conroe and After Conroe LOL! Both Intel and AMD have been known to be FOS, tell lies and aren't much different at all. My favorite sayings. "If I ONLY bought computers or computer parts from companies I liked, I'd NOT have a computer." Both Intel and AMD practice an art perfected in the school if Gen. U. S. Grant. "If you can't dazzle em' (short for them) fancy footwork, Baffle em' with BS"!

AMD Phenom X4 can do 3GHz and above

By normal air cool, the AMD Phenom X4 can go beyond the 3GHz mark by overclocking. Although this can be done, there are some stability issues at such high speed.

Currently, there aren't any options to turn off one or two of the cores. Running it in single channel memory helps to stabilise it.

Bluetooth is one of those guys who is credible and who got the one of the 1st GA RD790 mobos to test.So this is very good news coming from them!

Note he says air cooling is used and it's a X4 ,so all of the cores must work at the same clock since something is wrong(bios?) and they can't use separate PLLs to clock the cores individually.

And a note to Donnie27 and others going OT in this thread ,for the Nth time:

"Please post something that has to do with Phenom or get out from this news thread!"

We don't need trolling about 4x4 here Donnie.You take your views to separate thread in general hardware and discuss till there is no tomorrow,ok?Or you are afraid it will go down the tubes like the one topic you tried to post recently:"4x4 vs V8"?That was a funny thread,with wrong title,wrong link and wrong posts

[Hornet331]

argh... 7 more days...

i hope than all this unnecessary discussions will come to an end.

All I can see in your sig are images of CPUz screens, which are not a clue that you really have a K10 or Harpertown. It is like I put pics of two naked sexy girls and I claim I am working on them.

[MarlboroMan]

speculation

[BeardyMan]

If you have those systems, do some benches and publish the results here. It will be highly appreciated and will increase your credibility here.

I would not doubt about duploxx lol
and pushing him for breaking a nda is not nice eh
