The Official Kaveri Review Thread (A10-7850K, etc)

Any word on when the a8-7600 will be available? Seen the reviews and it looks like it was released with the other kaveri based cpus but no one seems to have any for sale. It's not an oem only part is it?

Anand benches with BD hotfixes

I think he said (which he was either told by engineers or marketing) that filling up modules with threads first to allow higher turbo would offer more performance than the penalty from sharing. Either someone was mislead, they couldn't turbo high enough, or the sharing penalty turned out to be...

AMD FX-8120P benchmark from Coolaler

I heard it's using only 1 thread on the 1 module with L2, L3, and prefetch disabled and using only half a memory channel.

SiSoft Leaks AMD FX "Zambezi" Scores: Worse Than Intel Core i7

Absolutely not, a Bulldozer "module" is a core. It is a core that implements CMT and duplicates some resources to more efficiently run two hardware threads. But it still is one core, go look up the definition of a processor core (hint: it includes reading/decoding instructions) and even AMD...
