AMD Bulldozer FX 8150 at 8429 MHz

[Movieman]

yeah MM better get a 4P and show us what 64 cores can do.

Peh, I only do dualies.. and occasionally interesting singles..

something tells me a few 16 C interlagos processors disappeared.
something also tells me they will reappear on WCG in a few days,

MM we know(atleast we think) you have already played with one on the grid. Now WE WANT NUMBERS.

edit: something tells me BD is a beast because of MM's avatar change.

I can honestly say that I did not see a 16 core chip during my time there but I did have a tray of FX 8150's in my hands,,More on that later..

cause they had 16C overclockable server parts at that event right, lol

nope

More exotic LHe action from AMD crew on BD with crazy results!!! Good work fellas

Dave I thought you were an Intel drone...now you're cheering the Green crowd?

I cheer good products. Blue,Green or pink, doesn't matter.
Now there are things I can't talk about yet but I can say I think they have a winner here.
I saw the benches...

I think one thing we all know now is that AMD is better than anyone at teasing. teasing with 8.4 GHZ is just EVIL.

You sayin my next rig will be green???

And next time you're in Austin - call me up! First round's on me.

I know the blue, and I know the green, but who makes the pink CPUs? Or, ah, you thinking of tutus again?

(I'm sooooo dead now)

Gahhh! Just throw more fuel on the fire, sure, go ahead.

<resumes wearing pace marks in the floor>


By the way, sure good to have you back again! Too quiet without you here.

[Kondik]

Now This is interesting, I want one ... In my PDA !
No Seriously 1 CPU and Already World Record ? Hats & Women & Sausages & some Wine would be appropriate. Come on Dave , Chop Chop !

[dctokyo]

OK, which admin let Dave off the BANNED list

Welcome back Dave

Impressive demonstration to be sure. What would be far more impressive would actually be seeing these chips for sale in the channel....a task which is proving to be infinitely more difficult for AMD than a mere clock speed record...

Patience my friend, won't be that long..not long at all..

no spam i am serious

hopefully I could save enough money for an 8 core when BD comes out.

[clo007]

Finally the man I can talk SMP's to. Thank God your back

[Origin_Unknown]

GRRR - movieman is back and i already want to spend money

[iddqd]

Wow, I guess bulldozer is no slouch! I wonder how well it would clock with all 8 cores enabled, though?

[[XC] hipno650]

if I trust one person on this forum for their opinion it would be MM. considering how Core i7's have dominated WCG and folding type apps if MM says its good i will take his word for it

thuban completely destroying bulldozer doesn't sound right; even K10 Barcelona was able to beat its predecessor in benchmarks

I don't know, looking at thoses score the Phenom II 1100T is goodly higher in cinebench .. even the 1075T is higher.

[informal]

Look at the single core score in C10. With Turbo on, it is slower than 1100T with it's own Turbo. If Turbo was off for that FX,then it is roughly on par. This is with supposedly much stronger FPU(in single thread case) versus K10... Either the sample/board is broken and this means everyone out there has the same (broken) platform,even the press. Or this is the performance of the design,which in turns means it fails in one of the things AMD touted it for the most- legacy floating point(SSE) workloads.

Dave, the Casanova of CPUs

[[XC] leviathan18]

way to come back Boss glad to see you

[[XC] Oj101]

Movieman, is it true that you touched one of these CPUs inappropriately?

[Movieman]

Movieman, is it true that you groped many of these CPUs inappropriately?

Fixed!
You would have thought I was working for the TSA!

No, but I am saying MY next rig will be green and hopefully the one after that!
iF I'd known you were in Austin I'd have buzzed ya..
