I found odd, was that some reviews showed BD faster in apps like Winrar etc, then others showed the oppesite... I actually like Techreports and Anadtech's reviews, but Anandtech should have shown low res and high res for all games and not just some.
I still want a BD regarless, can't wait ti try OCing it, which is how I role. I don't do anything fancy except run WCG and Game. I was most disappointed in power consumption though. But not a big issue for me either

Im so pissed right now i wanted to buy bulldozer for a new rig im making and no place has them in stock and they are 30-40 dollars more expensive then msrp. why not just do a paper launch there's clearly no availability. Only 2 sites have it availble to order ncix and tiger direct and both are on backorder tiger direct now has more then a month wait time wtf. This is worse then phenom.

oh snap! hokiealumnus who i think reviewed this on overclockers said he couldn't get 2133+ without coldOriginally Posted by El Gappo
Doesn't 'need' to be cold

Super easy.
Need to have a play with he higher strap.
thanks el gappo.. still getting it, at least it's good for rendering and encoding... i was uncompressing a huge file today, and i thought "if i only had bd"
No chance2600ish stable 2700+ benchable. ( With ram clocks up )
Lol badat, winrar is silly fast. Checking F@H performance atm, fingers crossed.

My pot is bigger than your pot
WHAU!!!!
You mean power consumption when overclocked, right?I was most disappointed in power consumption though. But not a big issue for me either
125W TDP models have 110W TDP for cores, 15W for the NB & external logic, while the readings for 95W TDP models are 80W for the cores and the same 15W for NB & external logic. So it ain´t that hot chip at stock.
Yeah, I know...
We are not at StockSystems.org thou.
Hah. Even though they're supposedly going to be EOL'd, I expect Phenom II X6 will still be high demand.
It just sucks? LOL.has amd commented on WHY bd isnt what it was supposed to be yet?
can you disable L3 cache in bios anywhere, just wondering ?No chance

HAVE NO FEAR!

You didn't get the memo? 1 hour 'Fugger time' is equal to 12 hours of regular time.
anyone know where i can buy a 8150...?

i dont get it either? this small gaming review makes bd look "ok" but what i find really odd is when bd is pushed harder it seems works better?I found odd, was that some reviews showed BD faster in apps like Winrar etc, then others showed the oppesite... I actually like Techreports and Anadtech's reviews, but Anandtech should have shown low res and high res for all games and not just some.

the higher the res brings it closer to the 2600k im some benches wtf?

I got the 8120 myself. Is there really much difference that overclock won't make up?
just bought one now i have to wait a

idk i myself prefer getting the top silicon i can but, your probably right. although bulldozer hasn't really been out long enough to see what the retail chips will do overclocking wise i never really trust the review samples since they can just send out cherry picked silicon

It all depends on your need/requirement. I can game at high res on this thing, even non OC'ed. This platform as mentioned in my review is not as slow s everybody thinks. It just got overhyped and partly mislabeled by the marketing guys. Some applications truely suck ass they do't exploit the CPU architecture at all. Some apps run uber fabulous.
@ The Stilt set 2800NB and NB voltage on AUTO watch a nice boost in NB voltage to 1.45.... Solved my 9905 turbo issues via Sami, thanks for that man !!

Question : Why do some overclockers switch into d*ckmode when money is involved
Remark : They call me Pro AsusSaaya yupp, I agree
There will be a fix for this issue.
the higher the res the more the video card becomes the constraint on performance rather than the cpu. you must be new at this
I have had review samples before, they are no better then retail and in some cases worse. They are in fact what you get in retail.
People would see right through all that sending cherry picked samples out to reviewers real fast when retails hit the market. Its a very bad move to do that kind of stuff, they know this.
well not new but not indepth as much as you guys.
at mo i got a 1090t and a 6970 justa rig i threw together just for bf3 so il miss this round and stick with my 1090t cos even at stock everything i need to do it does.
Can some one find a review site that used a 6970 and or 6990? Why is everyone using the nVidia 580?

because is the fastest single GPU card?
