    Zucker,stop posting if you have no clue about the topic at hand.I provided the links with proof about Bulldozer instruction set support. There might be changes on intel's part in the future(ie. they change AVX basic spec again),but at this very moment BD cores will support the previously(10 times repeated) version 5 of AVX and version 3 of FMA ,plus BD cores will have their own "exclusive" XOP extensions,a number of SSE5 instructions that are not included in AVX but could be important and valuable for HPC crowd.
    That still doesnt change anything. And the other PDF is version 3.03 from May 2009. The same type of instructions I listed are still missing. Both 256 and 128bit.

    And your new PDF is from....August 2007. SSE5 is also a SSE4.x competitor. Not AVX.

    I´m sure you can recall this:
