It's like GPUs lads, it's all in the software/drivers written for it...
We can test this new architecure on older apps and it might blow. Yet blow the socks off the previous generation with newer software... But as a reviewer you have to draw a line somewhere, somehow and decide what's feasible or not (mostly we are limited due to databases,...) ...
Speaking for myself I did not adapt my test suite, so the outcome might not reflect the performance you get in Y Cruncher, POV ray, X264HD with AVX etc... An update will follow with inclusion of some new numbers with adapted software... I think most review sites will do a similar thing, if not done already...
It will be fun to play with, especially the hardcore guys will set new records...
Saaya yupp, I agree
