AMD "Steamroller/Excavator" -info, speculations and experience

[PedantOne]

Oh I forgot to add: he claimed that HD48xx series won't have 800SPs but 480SP. He failed there too. And that blog post of his is gone,of course.

whats i know, in times of HD4800 his blog doesnot exists! You are trying to deceive us again as always, bro

[repman]

Which is absolutely plausible as some other sites measured this as well under certain load tests.

Link? I checked quite a lot of reviews and haven't seen that.

He posted it for sure,I cannot recall where but there are others who remember it I'm sure .

Also you said:

You are trying to blame us again as always, bro

Who are "us". Are you OBR? If so why did you register with this account here again?

It doesnt matter if the blog existed or not. What matters is that all those misinformation came from OBR himself, be it from his blog, forum posts, etc.

sorry for my english, i am german. i thought blame us is deceive us corrected

So of all the things he wrote, there's now one or two that are incorrect. That's not very much of a basis to disregard everything he writes by principle.

his attitude towards amd just shows that he's a douchebag. He doesn't post anything but amd stuff. His posts about amd stock just shows you that his blog has only one motive.

regardless can we not talk about anymore?

this is derailing the thread

back on topic.
ah yes back to steamroller.

I was thinking about this module only has one fetch for two cores
A normal dual core would technically have two fetches for the two cores one for each core.
Can the front end even give enough data for two decoders from one fetch, it seems like it would be the major bottleneck?

SR core addresses this .

[tbone8ty]

hopefully there is a amd fanboy on the JP Morgan finacial team and there showing him a steamroller chip and hes like daaaaaaaamn intel killa

lol

[Mechanical Man]

SR core addresses this .

No. SR has two decodes, one fetch.

Well what I meant it addresses the front end bottleneck(and fetch is in front end). And they optimized the fetch stage Vs BD/PD,it's more efficient. But yeah,there is one fetch per module as before.

I think the fetch is not the main culprit in BD/PD design, the numbers of decoders were.

[informal]

It's obvious it's decoding stage since that's what AMD doubled . But they did optimize the fetching stage too,it's more power efficient now and has a micro-op queue -this is a new feature Vs BD/PD cores .

I feel like they could use a ring bus for steamroller.

wow 28nm is far out, well at least its on the road map now and not in lala land

[EniGmA1987]

Posted a while ago. Still true?

CHIP DESIGNER AMD has said that its upcoming Vishera chip will not be the last to use Socket AM3+.

[informal]

Nobody knows,AMD included . They have changed their roadmaps so many times in the last few years that making any predictions on the socket longevity front is useless.

Yeah, holy true

[tbone8ty]

by the time they release a new desktop part they will be forced to have a new socket cause am3+ will be so old by then

"Steamroller is not Bulldozer Enhanced. F*** no. The layout might look the same but our LEGO blocks are completely different. When all is said and done we should get 45% improvement and this goes to show how the Bulldozer was f***** design. This is all what Bulldozer was supposed to be."

did anyone read this ?

Yes it was posted already on this forum. Smells like bs to me.
