i think at this point we all understand how it works..

a 4 module bulldozer has 8 cores. yes some shared resources but regardless there is still 8 cores in the cpu. intel cpu has 4 cores, 8 threads. bd has 8 cores 8 threads. if you still see it as a 4 core cpu that is perfectly fine with me, no matter how we see/classify it we will all have the same thing powering our pc

anyways this is a 100% pointless "argument" so i will return to how i have been the last n months, quietly waiting patiently
