New processors got programed rom, what voltage does it need to run what frequency, bla + bla + microcodes..
Nowdays mainboard dont support newest cpus, no correct microcodes inside mainboard flash. Not yet corect corect written ROM inside cpu.
Thats why HERE got strandge readings.
This is just plain aplha release of cpu (not much worth without microcode and even without proper mainboard)
i send a link, the most informations, are in the link ...
just folow, i think this is a real leak ...

5.0 on the WEI kind of sucks. I dont have high end hardware and I still get 6.0 on cpu(4400+) and 7.0 on everthing else. Maybe he is running on board video?
Mhhh those AMD doc infos look weird.2620 is listed several times with different default and turbo speeds? And only a 5.0 score?
my I7 920 @ 3.8Originally Posted by thematrixhazune
6950 @ 1000/5600 with 1536 sahders
12gig of ddr3 @ 1666
SCORES A MASSIVE ........4.9
yes i really value what WEI has to say.....
you know why it scores that? because it takes the lowest score, and im running my OS on a crap drive at the moment.
What are the chances of Bulldozer making the current Sandybridge look like P4's? So close to release must hold.
Zero. Sandy Bridge isn't a horrible arch, so that scenario can't happen.
You don't have to be horrible to get a kick in the nuts
But yeah you are right, there is zero chance for that to happen, unless Zambezi can clock to 6ghz on stock cooler
AMD Turbo CORE allows customers to tap into additional clock speed headroom by allowing the processor to rise up from the base clock speed up to the TDP level, automatically unlocking extra potential for the processor. Should the processor get too close to the power limit, it does automatically step back a bit to ensure that it is continuing to operate within the specified guidelines. This allows for significantly higher maximum clock speeds.
Some of the benefits of AMD Turbo CORE include:
· Up to 500MHz of additional clock speed available with all cores active. This means even with multiple cores active with full workloads, all cores can boost at the same time. For those customers that want to maximize their performance, they now have the tools to do it.
· Even higher boost states available with half of the cores active. AMD is not stating exactly how high processors can boost with AMD Turbo CORE, but obviously if there is room for up to 500MHz with all cores active, fewer active cores would obviously mean less power, and more headroom to recapture with AMD Turbo CORE. At launch you will see processors marketed with a base and a maximum frequency, base will reflect the actual clock speed on the processor and max will reflect the highest AMD Turbo CORE state.
· AMD Turbo CORE is deterministic, governed by power draw, not temperature as other competing products are. This means that even in warmer climates you’ll be able to take advantage of that extra headroom if you choose. This helps ensure a max frequency is workload dependent, making it more consistent and repeatable.
WEI take the lower score and give it as base score, if your HDD score 5.9 it will give 5.9 even if all your other score have 7.8 ( graphic, HDD, memory, CPU ) .. if the gpu used is a IGP and are not even recognise properly or don't have driver, im not suprised it will take a 4.9 ... Without saying i tend to believe some of the score are artifically linked with a certain type of hardware ..

CPU: - I7 4930K (EK Supremacy )
GPU: - 2x AMD HD7970 flashed GHZ bios ( EK Acetal Nickel Waterblock H2o)
Motherboard: Asus x79 Deluxe
RAM: G-skill Ares C9 2133mhz 16GB
Main Storage: Samsung 840EVO 500GB / 2x Crucial RealSSD C300 Raid0
I remember that only SSDs could get a higher score than 5.9 or something
Yes need an SSD .... or maybe raid0 will surely give something similar...
If i had let say a standard HDD and so 5.9 on HDD score, the WEI will be 5.9 on the main performance page..

It appears we may be able to expect 1Ghz boosts in speed with Turbo Core (to 4100Mhz!). The interesting tidbit is that Turbo Core is dependent on power draw and not CPU temp. Overclocking while leaving this feature on will require motherboards with good power phases and stable, low voltages. On the flip side, with Turbo Core off the sky's the limit. This new uArch and process are certain to clock extremely well!

K8 wasn't horrible five years ago either, but a lot of people changed their mind when C2D was released three months later.
Well yes, my point was why waste 13GB of RAM?!? Would make a lot more sense to use a 64Bit OS with 16GB of RAM, or am I missing something?
My guess is (and this is only a guess and speculation on my behalf) that the motherboard BIOS is not quite good enough yet so the system would be unstable with 16GB of RAM, perhaps even 8GB!
My only concern is that a lot of AMD fanboys are going to be upset when Bulldozer is released. Let us all be realistic. Bulldozer will be a very good competitor to the 2600K and this is going to be the first time in many years that AMD compete with Intel's current Generation.
We all know that each Phenom revision as been a generation behind where it should be, so Bulldozer is certainly the turning point, but it is not going to be the miraculous holy grail a lot of fanboys on other sites are hyping it up to be.

Stop looking at the walls, look out the window
C2D was released 3 month after K8? Really?!
AMD Phenom II X6 1055T@3.5GHz@Scythe Mugen 2 <-> ASRock 970 Extreme4 <-> 8GB DDR3-1333 <-> Sapphire HD7870@1100/1300 <-> Samsung F3 <-> Win8.1 x64 <-> Acer Slim Line S243HL <-> BQT E9-CM 480W
That or they only had a 32bit disc of windows to hand to do a fresh install and had already plugged the RAM in
I thought it was ~18months?
But eh, what do I know
Good point

OMG you can't read? Really?
Five years ago: April 2006.
Three months later: July 2006
@JohnZS: first a64 started shipping in '03, c2d in '06.
@Mats: yes, i cant read. thats why im posting here -.-
u have to admit, that it kinda sounded that way.

I thought the AMD K8 was released sometime in 2003 with the Core2Duo being Aug 2006?
But eh... like I said, what do I know
LOL @ myself for guessing ~18months when really I should have typed ~24-36 months... ah well...

My point was: Exactly five years ago people didn't think K8 was slow in any way, but only 3 months later C2D showed up and changed everything.
So the argument that an upcoming CPU can't make a current one look slow because the current one looks good for the moment doesn't really help us here.
In retrospect, K8 wasn't as bad as P4, and I don't think SB will be regarded as slow when BD shows up.
K8 was released April 22 (server) and September 20 (desktop) 2003, IIRC. However, I never talked about the launch date of the K8, you made that up.
Not really sure where you got the quote on the Turbo Core, but the last bullet was clearly a misleading point - "AMD Turbo CORE is deterministic, governed by power draw, not temperature as other competing products are." The so called competing products is actually power && current && temperature driven. If it is from marketing material, it is clearyly a clever wording trick to mislead

Just over a month until release and we have almost nothing except the official information. Just some picture of a processor and some claims of a screen. I don't know if it's a good or a bad thing that we know so little so far.
