How did you get the voltage to show in the validation?

And a BIG welcome back Stephan, AMD's missed you

lool had good laugh here

especially fruits =) to use 24 cores is much better than having an orgasm?

The motherboard is a socket G34 board, using a new ES chipset and ES CPUs. These 12 core processors are not going to be available on anything but the new sockets coming out early next year, May 10th I think. This first version of the 12-cores are 2 Istanbul CPUs glued together. The new chipset finally has some of the fun new features available on it compared to the super old Nvidia 3600 chipsets out today for servers. Things such as the changed PLL stuff to allow good overclocking, IO virtualization, HT3 support, and probably GPU virtualization as well that was just demonstrated by AMD.

The Intel boys are going to have a fieldtrip with that line

CPU-Z 1.52.0+ shows the voltage in validation shots.

Shows when last I had a result worth posting

**WamPIRe** · 09-09-2009, 04:39 AM

Damn crazy CPU there! 16 cores @ +3Ghz.. just amazing!

What for? Their cpus were that for years.

**[XC] Oj101** · 09-09-2009, 05:14 AM

Exactly, AMD was loud about their quads being the first true quads.

**N19h7m4r3** · 09-09-2009, 05:17 AM

True but these aren't quads, and their 6cores were true 6 cores.

Also this is an ES, so far each time they launched a chip is a proper one. Who knows maybe the 12cores will be a proper one when launched.

**[XC] Oj101** · 09-09-2009, 05:21 AM

I think it's too soon for true 12 core CPUs to be near. On 45nm it's going to be a HUGE die.

that was hector though wasn't it ?

MCM would have been cheap but 65nm just sucked anyways.

they're already trying to play that one off, it was harder for amd to do true quad at 65 nm Intel didn't do it because they didn't want to, because they needed more die space of hyper threading so they didn't make one till 45nm.

Intel had a Core 2 Quad with HT? Not that I'm aware of

It doesn't matter if it was Hector or Bill Gates, just the fact that AMD was loud is enough for the Intel gang.

**N19h7m4r3** · 09-09-2009, 05:30 AM

Ah well, I don't care if it's MCM or a True. I care about performance and so do many.

If it performs and has a good price I'll buy it. Specially looking at it's clocking potential so far, it seems that buy some cheap 1.7Ghz chips might pay off well.

That's why they decided to put 2 Dice on a package and no memory controller is unused so this CPU has 2x2 Chans...

See above

no they needed a bigger die for what they wanted so they waited to get good 45nm or else they would have done a 65nm monolithic quad core.

amd bulldozer core is suppose be 32nm new core design.

beofre this we'll see a shrink of deneb.

No, Intel did it because they could, AMD couldn't put 2 dice on a package, that would really suck.
You remember the cheapest S940 Dual Opteron Boards where only one CPU had direct acces to the memory?!

And someone did Dual Single Core Opteron vs single dual core Opteron, the single dualcore was almost everywhere faster.

You sure? I would like to see that but I've not seen that on roadmaps and I don't know if they have the resources to dedicate to it. Would be nice to see 3Ghz quad's @ 45W though lol.

**[XC] Oj101** · 09-09-2009, 05:51 AM

AMD just DID put two dies on one package though.

BTW thanks for that awesome benchs.

Dunno what happened to the original. Should be fixed now.

**[XC] Oj101** · 09-09-2009, 06:09 AM

Can you please tell is where you've been for the past year?

**WSP** · 09-09-2009, 08:48 AM

could you take a close up shots of that cpus?
please?

The FX57 man strikes again , i simply love it!

wow 12 core clocking!!!
