Dresdenboys' blog: AMD Bulldozer - Patent based research

[Mechromancer]

Zambezi is AM3r2 and it is bulldozer based.
You are mixing Magny Cours(2x Lisbon hex cores based on 10h) with MCM of 2x 8 core Bulldozer(server code name Interlagos).The non-mcm version of Interlagos(native 8 core bulldozer) is desktop counterpart to Zambezi,but fits in C32 socket.

Informal is well informed as usual. If you want info on AMD, join AMDZone. John Fruehe himself keeps us informed. AMD is having their annual Financial Analyst Day tomorrow and they will be officially revealing a little about Bulldozer. JF says a little about it here and linked to it in his post. DON'T MISS IT!

In that AMDzone thread Fruehe confirms that Bulldozer is not happening in 2010, but rather, in 2011.

That's better then the 2012 you were hoping for.

Thanks for sharing the news link ,a very good thread!

When was Bulldozer officially on the 2010 roadmap?
It has been 2011,there is a slide from last year that has clearly stated " bulldozer goes to 2011" or similar to that effect.
On the other hand,Llano cpu/gpu hybrid based on 10h cores and rv8xx is supposedly scheduled for Q4 2010,so BD cores won't be the first 32nm products(which goes hand in hand with AMD avoiding to do new design on new process node ).

Before it slipped to 2011?

AMD financial day starts in ~20min. Let's see if they officially push it back to H2 2011 today, or whether they decide to wait until next year to push it back.

Well, Bergman simply stated 2011, nothing about which half... but he made the strong point of sampling in H1 2010, so the preparatory ramp-up can follow in 2H 2010.

It's always better(in today economic/financial situation) to under-promise and over-deliver than do the opposite. AMD's roadmap execution has been stellar since Shanghai and nothing "slipped" or was pushed back as you like to say,even Istanbul was pulled in and so it is G34/Magny Cours,new Istanbul fiorrano platform,new GPUs.

LOL, yes join AMDzone and listen to all those level headed guys tell you how AMD is actually the best in every metric and it is reviewers being paid off and software optimisations that make Intel look good. They are crazy, Its like a cult ffs
