QUOTE AMD BullDozer delay is Strategic decision By Hilbert Hagedoorn, June 6, 2011 - 7:46 PM N/A Well that's what AMD says, and of course any decision could be labeled as strategic but the Bulldozer processors (Zambezi FX series) have been delayed alright. guru3D was able to confirm that it will take 60 to 90 days from this week before the new processors will see the light of day. Meanwhile there of course will be Llano. Guido Lohmann, AMD PR Manager Northern Europe, "The very gratifying success of the C-and E-series APUs has led to the decision to go ahead first in the desktop area with an APU, and then to follow with the Bulldozer processors,” concluded the company's rep." Before the word was out reports and indications from Asia suggested that AMD is problems with the performance of its Bulldozer architecture, the first chip revisions functioned at lower than expected frequencies hence they already are working and producing on a new B2 stepping. Now this is just a rumor, but it was expected that Zambesi would be able to run 3.5 GHz, whereas the B0 and B1 revision halted at 2.5 GHz. The new B2 stepping should (hopefully) solve this. Zambezi is targeting the high-end desktop space and come with an unlocked multiplier, support for AMD's Turbo Core 2.0 technology and an integrated dual-channel DDR3-1866MHz controller. sosej guru3d |

Finally, some official words from AMD.
      Err..... The noisy stock cooler again? Hope AMD can give some better coolers like the one in Athlon X2 era.   [/URL]You can tune the clock for every core. This post has been edited by kingkingyyk: Jun 7 2011, 07:52 PM |

Am I seeing things or is that a tin container for the 8-core chip?

what benefit the "flex floating point" will bring for a processor? does it improve core performance, thus will benefit us in gaming, encoding videos etc? anyone care to explain?

I can't really explain much about it but FlexFP will give you more flexibility when it comes to programs that want to use it compared to the conventional method like SB has 256bit dedicated per core. With the FlexFP you can have 2 128bit and 2 cores in a module can share those 2 to make a 256bit.FlexFP will not be the determining factor that will put Bulldozer ahead of SB. There are other parts of the CPU that is more important and tweaking those will give a much higher performance than just having FlexFP. I'm a little bit skeptical about FMA4 because SB still uses FMA3 and the industry only moves to FMA4 when Intel |
