AMD Shanghai/Deneb Review Thread

[demonkevy666]

Out of all the reviews Guru3D & hardwarecanucks were good.

Others said 3.5Ghz is the limit for Oc and that is just BS.

I was reading some where when reivewing the i7 they where having troubles keeping stable at .36ghz so they brought it to water cooling and got 3.733ghz and yet they always Keep any AMD away from this kind of thing >_> typical bias reviews use water cooling on one and not the other.

Yep as I expected most reviews just wanna say deneb/ Phenom IIis no comparison to anything intel has....gotta love bias.

The overclocking saddens me aswell they never overclock nb/ht ot htt and they couldn't get higher than 3.6 stable I wonder why perhaps because that's all intel could usually get on q6600.

Power consumption...most didn't turn on cool and quiet etc. so they inflated idle consumption.

Funny how when they did do things right it was more equal between the 2 companies processor's...to those reviewers good job for not submitting to intel's payroll.

I mean come on how does phenom II manage to lose by 20 fps+ in a gpu limited situation?
