AMD Shanghai/Deneb Review Thread

[informal]

I think that it is believable. The higher NB clocks for DDR3 is more necessary than for DDR2.

"Theo also claims AMD's latest AM3 Phenom II CPUs generate 16GB/s from dual channel DDR3 1,333MHz. While this is clearly less than Intel's triple channel malarkey with Core i7, we've seen in our initial Core i7 review it does little to further performance over dual channel."

I think Theo was speaking about AM2+ version .
Also i think DDR3/AM3 Denebs will not need higher NB clocks more than DDR2/AM2+ ones.
In any case,the NB clocks never crossed the 1.3 ratio mark like i've shown in my previous post.Not even on Shanghai 45nm parts(which are socketF,not F+/HT3.0).
