Hi Guys,

About OBR, I can tell you there is some genuine BD entries in the CPUZ Validator Database right now and none of them looks like the one he published. Especially regarding the construction of the PSN.

A good proof for what he says should be to validate a dump, even unpublished. If he let me check this dump, I will be able to confirm or not.

Mmmmm. I'm reviewing CPUs since 10 years and I never saw a huge performance gap between any B0 ES CPU and the final, retail step of the same CPU. Changes in features and OC abilities for sure, but not in raw performance. This said, the validator database contains many BD steps, from the first A0 to the latest one (with final PSN), and none of them looks like the PSN on his screenshots.

I don't know what to think about OBR. This could be 100% fake, but some of the informations he published are true. For example the launch date. At this time, the press NDA disclosure is planned for the 06 Sept while the retail launch is planned for October, between 03 and 15. The exact date is not yet defined, but it's really October. In the opposite, there is some clear fakes in the pictures he released. The values displayed by CPUZ seems wrong and doesn't follow the current BD dumps I have in the database. He could have a different CPU, but that's unlikely. A single submit from him could be a great proof of everything. I can guarantee I will not pass any informations from him to AMD. I was the first to leak K8 results on the Internet, so I know what I'm talking about But there is some more disturbing fake I spotted in his pictures. Like this one (hard to explain, so here is a small picture) :

That's what I call real informations

Here we are again with yet another piece of confusing information. This is the printscreen of a cached document that shortly appeared on his blog on Tuesday, 17th May 2011: www.maltrabob.com/Obr_popel3.jpg. It reads:

"My bad: I was mistaken ... big time

I was expecting that AMD BD was going to be a fiasco, I was mistaken and declare that it is not. After many years of inferior performance the time has come for some revenge ... Intel is going to be surprised I guess! That`s why Intel is likely to plan Core i7-2800K and similar ones ..."

Unfortunalely I wasn`t fast enough to capture the whole article but I managed to read it all. In general, it was saying that BD is not going to disappoint.

Here's my analogy.

OBR is some pissed off dweeb that can't get AMD review samples legit because he can't keep his mouth shut. For some reson he blames his contact in his local area when in reality it's his own damn fault.

Someone is selling him chips but the joke is on him, it could be AMD themselves, but they are sending him some preety rotten samples, either his contact for chips is burning him and laughing all the way to the bank or AMD is doing it just to have a good laugh.

The term having more money than brains applies here.

As far as JF and his comments towards, well......JF is server not desktop. Not only is OBR out of line, he's an idiot in this sense, when JF makes a comment it is based on his knowledge of server side not desktop.

What the duck are you talking about "useful"? As useful as the turds my dog makes when we take a walk which I have to pick up and throw in the garbage where it belongs.

What is so useful that I might've missed, have the braintrust of XS come to the conclusion that all he says is either BS or fake? Good going I think most people knew this before he started faking stuff about BD.


Two very good posts, especielly the one from Dumo couldn't agree more with you

because you asked...

Can we talk about Bulldozer now, instead of SB-E, Ivy and a guy full of crap?
