when will the bulldozer be released?

yup me also waiting, when bulldozer be released ?
dunno go for i5-2500k or bulldozer, wanna upgrade from my trusty OC e6750

Take a look on your link, there is no 1.57.1, but 1.57 instead.
And also, CPU-Z 1.57 got the Max TDP window already.


Anyway, I wonder where they get 1.57.1

He didn't mean the Max TDP window is fake. He meant the value might be fake.

1.57.1

mmmm.... lots of 990FX Board being unboxed and first preview

Its already available on CPUZ website (click on the CPUZ version history link in my previous post). AFAIK only the CPUZ screenshots with unrecognized engineering samples looks more valid (without the FX logo)

Yups! A staggering "186W"!

I'm pretty set on crosshair 5 for 990fx board

Wanna ask pro here,
How can a software/game utilize all core of the cpu e.g. 8 cores
Izzit by programming language or game engine or the OS?
Sorry for the noob question

All. OS then game engine then programming language to support the multi-threading/core.

If the game engine already supports multi core, then the compiled code will support multithread automatically.
You will deal with the game engine code instead if you decided to go with it.
The game engine will compile it's language. It has all of the facilities for you already. It is like a framework.
Indeed, if you decided to code the game by yourself without any game engine, and you want it to get multithread support, then you have to think yourself on how to managing the task for each core and add dynamic support for threads, even arbitrary number of threads.

Not attacking your post, but just to boost some facts into it.

Awesome! APU for my new HTPC!

AMD A-Series Llano APU Sabine Notebook Platform Review

Llano mobile review is out early by 1 day despite the fact that the NDA is not lifted yet.

Didn't bother reading the whole thing but is this suppose to be a low power replacement cpu to the E series chip? This is very significantly slower than intel.

APU's aren't supposed to be faster than Intel's offering. It's supposed to offer great graphics performance at a lower cost. That's what APU is all about. Not to kill Sandy Bridge in processing performance, but to kill it in the mainstream area where graphics matter most.

regarding the 990FX

Arent most if not all bulldozer comes with ATI graphics? Why would AMD want to repeat Intel p67 mistake again? Shouldnt they just come out a chipset with vga support by default?

FX series chipsets never came with IGP from their history i presume.Discrete graphics card is more preferable as 990FX are targeted in enthusiast level?

No. The first gen Bulldozer will not come with integrated graphics on die. However, the 990GX chipset should come with an IGP. The next generation of Fusion will be Bulldozer + Integrated graphics. Again, what's the mistake with Intel? P67 not allowing integrated graphics? AMD's case is not the same.

when this fx processor will be available at LOW YAT?????

Mobile Llano Review

Desktop Llano Preview

http://www.inpai.com.cn/doc/hard/151251.htm
Bulldozer Turbo Boost allows 1GHz clock speed boost at maximum.

Llano is slightly faster to Athlon II, clock-to-clock comparison.
But still far slower than Phenom II with L3 cache.
Disappointing.
To AMD : The game is not changed.
