    Pretty funny stuff...

    Anyone that has ever did any research on it or anything would know that intel are faster, have been for some time.
    At least by 300-500 mhz worth, to close that gap (clocking up the amd).
    I say 300 because that's what mine needed to get close to an older intel I think 3 years ago, maybe longer.
    In pcsx2...

    Crises 3 comes out tomarrow.
    You can play it now if you're south korean supposedly... ^^
    I never played 1, or 2 or that other one., heard 2 sucked and 1 was good.

    No offense to amd.
    But they have piss poor mem and cache performance.
    And they're faking an 8 core, intel doesn't even mislable there chips like that.
    If they actually sold a real 8 core at $300 I would buy it...

    And btw ipc means instructions per clock...
    Not every single instruction can exe within a clock, some reg's are faster then others...

    I'm sorry, I can't help it.
    I some of you guys wanna pretend that amd is faster then go ahead...
    Have fun with that, I know that's what overclocking is for but still...

    Though, the 3770k is a quad core as well.
    In that sense it is possible for amd to get the upper hand.
    But it would be rare.
    It's some sort of scheduling or something I'm guessing.

    The thing is, integer's them self's are not that taxing on the cpu, stable at lower voltages then what the fpu instructions usually need.
    If you wanted to, if your os was not using any fpu instructions at all, you could clock your cpu way higher.
    But I don't think they have independant clocks...

    Anyways amd only has 4 fpu's..
    They only way I can think of, is that they simulated there fpu instructions with the normal registers.
    It's possible in asm to do that..., I do it because I don't even know how to use the fpu never got into it...
    Or they just took advantage of more normal registers, twice as much.

    I don't know.
    I haven't seen any benches on that...
    I think it may be all down to when it's a good idea to access an fpu and when it's a bad idea on the amd's.

    No offense to anyone or anything, I'm just rambling on...

    No Crysis isn't "heavily optimized" for AMD, it's just multi-threaded, AMD was already competitive with Intel in multi-threaded apps.

    IPC = instructions per clock, 100 instructions x 10 clock = 10 instructions x 100 clock. So how does comparing clock for clock proves anything?

    Who can say Bulldozer with Intel fabrication process would have not ended better than sandy bridge?


    intel fanboys better pray gpu accelerated software takes it time going mainstream otherwise looking at this thread they gonna need a lot of antacids.

    Lots of things wrong with this but starting from the top: Crysis 3 was out yesterday. Not tomorrow. Not sure what South Korea had to do with anything.
