    Quotes taken out of context can be true, but in context they can mean something different. Your quote was a response to my post about pipes. He is trying to make 3 pipelines appear like 6 pipes. Which is a twist to the truth.

    BD has more resources since it can use 2 ALUs and 2 AGUs every clock, Phenom II averages at 1.5 ALUs and 1.5 AGUs since the share pipe. Again, if you can't use it, it isn't a resource. 2+2=4 (3+3)/2=3.

    I hope you properly get it now.
    The discussion is still around IPC. Even if you try to make it look different. And it's still about BDs integer execution capacity compared to k8 (10h), we are pointing out that BDs 4 pipes seems a bit stronger than K8s 3 pipes.
    And by adding the different parts of K8s pipeline together some people here are trying to make them look twice as strong.
    4 pipes equals more resources than 3.
