Manicdan Interesting, I didn't know google had an online document creator(viewer).

In a 4 module BD 1-4 threads are processed in different modules, only when you need 5-8 threads the remaining integer clusters are activated.
At least thats how I remember It from some leaked slides.

i dont think this is true, a slide by AMD said that the next level of turbo only happens when half the modules are power gated

chew* I don't remember AMD commenting if the price tag 300 dollars was for the highest BD model although I think so to.

better by 7.5% on average would be very good. Actually my first chart was showing 10.5% on average.

It doesn't really matter, only 2-3 weeks remain and we will see how good BD really is. I want a Trinity so I want BD to perform really well.

I come up with this.

Based on price compare with sandy the difference equates to 1.075%.

Sandy at 6000 in wprime about 4.77

Thuban at 6000 in wprime about 4.78

BD projected performance based on price to sandy at 6000 4.72.

I personally don't think the gap is that small, but at least i'm being a realist, peeccimists are never disapointed.

Optimism is the path to a very dissapointing life.
