Phenom II 6 GHz+ OVERCLOCK

[dinos22]

soundood

i dont know how long you've been around overclocking circles but when we were all growing up on AMDs and kicking Intels arse AMD and many fanboys were shouting from the rooftops challenging intel with many things including SuperPi

AMD was absolutely murdering Intel in SuperPi aside from their mobile chips or those leaky 8GHz P4s hehehe

AMD was the and we all loved and bought crazy amounts of their hardware

So Intel turned the tables with Conroe and burried AMD overnight............... and now AMD doesn't want to know about SuperPi
WOW surprise surprise


I am not debating the goodness or badness of SuperPi. I am simply stating the obvious hypocritical attitude at the moment


...................................

I am sure that AMD has no answer to SuperPi which is fair enough.....i love superpi and will buy hardware that runs it faster but I will also buy AMD from now on if these claims are indeed correct

IF these claims are correct and they were hitting 6.3GHz screens and the CPUs will appear on XS in cherry picked for they will be able to bench at 6GHz fairly easily (reason for big "if" is if they indeed did not play tricks that Francois alluded to)

lets say 5.8GHz and 5.5GHz for crappy CPUs
Intel is at 4.8-5.2GHz at the moment

AMD will be able to take some benchmarks if they can stay within 10% efficiency of Intel at least

lots of guesswork but all so exciting and confusing atm

we need these CPUs now to test the claims
