AMD Zambezi news, info, fans !

quite possible, with TC it still would be 3,7ghz (if it is 500mhz).

edit: played around a bit with the TC freq. and it seems the first one is a 9... but its kinda strange 900mhz would make sense (its 4,1ghz for st apps), but then theres only space for 2 numbers and there a G at the end... and the last number seems to either be a 2 or 7...

9,2 or 9,7 ghz doesn't make much sense....

Charlies & JF-AMD hinted it was a fake.

So.......everybody pls keep calm & wait.

This will be my last post about this slide as some news sites are using our guesses as actual news. And the slide is probably fake anyways. But it's very fun to speculate and guess; especially since there isn't much other information to come by.

What you think is a 9 is most likely a 1. So on the FX-8130P it probably says TC + 1.2GHz and on the FX-8110 it seems to say TC + 1.0GHz.
The stock frequency looks to be 3.2GHz for the FX-8130P just like you guys posted and probably 3.0GHz for the FX-8110 (though it seems eiher a 3 or 6 could fit in the place of the 0).

I guess these are the most likely guesses of those that have been posted aswell.

Anyways, I figure it's time to stop over-analyzing this slide now and get back to the regular discussion.

1. its not a fake. but it doesnt show what u think it does.
2. yes, i like to make things up, just like charlie. i think hes mad at me cause of some earlier time :P
4. that doesnt mean i like faking things, just that i like to play with the media.
3. JF is a gr8 guy but when it comes to desktop, hes as reliable as a stone. i mean, at the time we had thuban already in testing he was still telling everyone there wont be a desktop 6-core cpu, evaaar! cause u know, it didnt exist at this time.
4. one day, when im tired of all this , ill tell u my story and u can judge me.

I'm gonna trust wombat on this, he's been pretty accurate on the previous Rage3D and ATI stuff so. yeah...

[informal]

I agree Macadamia ^^.

you can guess as much as you want on these versions, see my comment in LIano thread, these versions are made up so why bother trying to figure out what they will be capable off....

Are those versions not real? OK I will have no comment anymore about these if they're not.

FX-8130P 3.2Ghz/4.4Ghz with Turbo Core.

There you go. That is the information I have. So you're nearly spot on.

The reason I said why they will be surprised at the FX-4110 is because I have been told it has stock clocks of 3.6Ghz, which I find to be very impressive for a quad core on a new arc in its first revision.

If previous Phenom X4 and X6 clock scaling and process improvement is carried forward to BD, then at the very least we should see 4Ghz stock FX models by early next year. (Fingers crossed)

[Macadamia]

Herp derp, the subtle hints that BDZ was a speed demon...

If they did a 125W 4140P it could probably reach 4G default as the BD silicon core-gates itself. They should try doing a "E8400" along with the top-end, as 4 int modules will be all that most people need.

There you go. That is the information I have. So you're nearly spot on.

Those 1.0+ GHz Turbo Core speedups sound plausible because even Interlagos (2.3 GHz in Cray, maybe more at top bin frequencies) will have 500 MHz turbo on all cores. Remember ISSCC numbers, where average integer apps use ~65% of TDP ( http://regmedia.co.uk/2011/02/24/amd...ower_usage.jpg )

So with turbo at active core counts<max core count there should be even more room than for loads with all cores active.

OMG, does it imply it would break 5ghz with only one integer core loaded?

[Manicdan]

if they can get that high while still being in a safe voltage range, its plausible. but generally we can get a few hundred mhz higher clocks without touching volts, so its probably binned really well for a high temp range that us overclockers never see, which is why we can use that headroom.

Cool! Nice to get some semi-confirmation that we managed to figure out the slides in the end. Credit should go to DarthShader though as he was the first one to almost figure them out (with the help of me )

Let's just hope these numbers are accurate as they sure are extremely promising for Bulldozer's performance. Now we just need to figure out how they are going implement a turbo of this level. It's obvious that just the most active cores will get the boost. The question is how many of the cores that'll be allowed to reach 4.4GHz. Four perhaps? It seems like a reasonable number for most computing.

I got a theory:

The delay rumours come from Asus, they need to reevaluate Final BIOS support for their boards, cause they have been wrong 8130P numbers.

Makes sense?

Could someone point ASUS to this thread? Because we have all the FX-8130P numbers they'll ever need right here!

pls stop posting those CPU types, bad info, you can geep guessing on the GHZ and turbo, final ES with final GHZ do exist but no one will confirm the latest cpu types and neither 8130P and 4110 will exist at launch .

tell me the right ones and ill the them.

Final recovery (95% accuracy):


Empty spots can't be digitally recovered from original file... but I'm sure you can recover most of them logically ,)



PS what do you think w0mbat? Those "1"s after TC+ just don't fit nicely... that's why only 95% rating for this recovery. Is "1" a correct number there ???

[w0mbat]

lol. 95% accuracy? how did u get to that conclusion?

[Daimler]

w0mbat pixels and edges gradient, 95% match. except those "1" - they are more logical match as nothing fits those left pixels except "1".
Point to mistakes plz and we'll look into it )))

[Swiftdeathz]

I came across this article today:

Asus has leaked a few fresh tidbits of information on AMD’s upcoming Bulldozer processors. The company posted a few new specs in a BIOS evaluation chart for one of its new 990FX motherboards.

The list includes two eight-core parts, which were already leaked some time ago. The FX-8130P is a 3.8GHz part and it can overclock to 4.2GHz on turbo. It has a TDP of 125W and should sell for $320. The FX-8110 also packs eight cores and it’s clocked at 3.6GHz sans turbo, or 4.0GHz with turbo. The TDP stands at 95W and the price is $290.

In the six-core department, the FX-6110 will feature a 95W TDP and an MSRP of $240, but there is no word on clocks yet. The same goes for the quad-core FX-4110, with a 95W TDP and $190 price.

In any case, the prices look very competitive compared to Intel’s high end parts and Bulldozer should be on a par with current high-end Intel Core series parts.

[w0mbat]

id look into the stock FX4 clocks too.

[Daimler]

w0mbat hmm... FX 4110 stock could also be 3.6Ghz. "6" fits the shape but does not fit the gradient. Only "8" fits both shape and gradient although not perfectly... any other number doesn't fit at all. SO I take it as 3.6Ghz stock clock then ) tnx

[Manicdan]

what is G28PH?

Maybe we'll get a sneak peak of Zamezi in AMD's Live Webcast From COMPUTEX 2011?

The live webcast will offer details on how AMD's 2011 VISION Technology refresh will better serve consumers in selecting the best next generation of computing experiences and offer sneak previews of new products planned for release in 2011.

Lets wait and see , First event I will go at COMPUTEX
I hope I didn't sleep over-time that day
