Bulldozer 50% Faster than Core i7 and Phenom II

here you go AMD fans!! , if this is true, price wars nasad

Here, take some salt. AMD reportedly gave out performance figures in a presentation to its partners, performance figures seen by DonanimHaber. It is reported that an 8-core processor based on the "Bulldozer" high-performance CPU architecture is pitched by its makers to have 50% higher performance than existing processors such as the Core i7 950 (4 cores, 8 threads), and Phenom II X6 1100T (6 cores). Very little is known about the processor, including at what clock speed the processor was running at, much less what other components were driving the test machine.

Taking this information into account, the said Bulldozer based processor should synthetically even outperform Core i7 980X six-core, Intel's fastest desktop processor in the market. Built from ground-up, the Bulldozer architecture focuses on greater inter-core communication and reconfigured ALU/FPU to achieve higher instructions per clock cycle (IPC) compared to the previous generation K10.5, on which its current Phenom II series processors are based. The processor is backed by new 9-series core logic, and a new AM3+ socket. AMD is expected to unveil this platform a little later this year.

Bulldozer 50% Faster than Core i7 and Phenom II

as the thread title says. price will be the big difference. nice info.

[HanzoHattori]

kung tinuod man gani, then competitive ang prices, it will be good for us consumers

[archt_vin]

YEAH! kay mag pabaratohay na man sila hehehe

Well its 8 cores, it would be very disappointing if it wont give 50% more performance.. but if you translate their message they perform 50% less on a core to core basis.

maayo hinuon if ang bulldozer is faster than i7 para mobarato ang mga core i-series,pero unsa kaha ka tinuod?

Im rooting for AMD to release something that can beat intel on a clock per clock performance para dli sila mo abuso sa prices, mao ni ang X58 ug the upcoming X68 tag 15-20k

I am still waiting for the AMD Camp to catch up, Nindot ang AMD because their sockets live long.

Bulldozer Motherboards can support AM3 processors so pwede ka mu hinayx2 ug upgrade to Bulldozer

[regilsolon]

expected this april mogawas si bulldozer.

yehey! can't wait ani ay. basa basa ra nuon ko kutob! hahahaha
