AMD's Bobcat and Bulldozer

[terrace215]

It is related to "Significant improvement",not "Performance/Watt/mm2"

I see, so you just pick the parts you like! Fun.

The whole chip's "Performance/Watt/mm2" make sense,but single-threaded performance/mm2 doesn't make sense in a multicore chip.

I suggest you consider whole_chip(Perf/W/mm2)/#threads -- presumably you think THAT makes sense, as well, since we're just dividing by a constant for each part being compared. Now, is it so hard to see why you can talk about the perf/W/mm2 for a single-threaded workload?

Nonsense FUD.

Ok, just don't get mad later on...
