    Massive security hole in CPU's incoming?Official Meltdown/Spectre Discussion Thread

    Rifter, Agree from preliminary results that heavy SSD/nvme/m.2 access seems to be taking a hit. Makes me wonder if the majority of YouTube tech reviewers that opted for the 7980X are going to put their two cents in, as most of that particular choice was made for their content creation machines...

    Hitman, am going with Moinmoin here. This is where I miss Ian, Anand, etc popping on the forums to hash things around and get inspired to write up a thorough article to clear matters.

    Massive security hole in CPU's incoming?Official Meltdown/Spectre Discussion Thread

    bauerbrazil2014 and BigDaveX, How long ago did AMD incorporate the MMU into their silicon? From both the Phoronix and the register articles, the MMU doesn't seem to be affected. Bulldozer? Or since Zen?

    Massive security hole in CPU's incoming?Official Meltdown/Spectre Discussion Thread

    Thank you all for the link to Phoronix. Get me up to date numbers please, Linux based gaming is what? 0.5%- 2% of total gaming? Accessing a PubG game requires what? A server? Odds are an Intel server? So the 15-40% hit on real Linux servers was shown by that testing. Ok thanks, my point...

    Bulldozer has better IPC when run 4C/4M?

    Aigo is almost there. (Salud mi amigo) not about "normal sceduling" There aren't enough terms to describe Intels original doubling speed optimizations. They were done in thirds. Go figure. Intel would return to the unoriginal divide by four, drop one for overhead. Remember the original dx33...

    Bulldozer has better IPC when run 4C/4M?

    Hence the trashing of BD and JF. Forwarned was the different style of architecture, different meaning to phrase "core". Now everybody starting to figure it out piece at a time. Timely flashback: dual cores? Why?!? Just make the single core chip oc and you get more calc's per cycle than...

    [OFFICIAL] Bulldozer Reviews Thread - AnandTech Review Posted

    Looks like Guru3D came to similar conclusions from reading their stats. Telling was the games hitting on only 4 of the cores. Looks like its going to be another gap until optimizations are written that take advantage of the newer systems. Considering how long it has taken for programmers to...

    [OFFICIAL] Bulldozer Reviews Thread - AnandTech Review Posted

    Somehow, have been getting the distinct impression that reviewers under NDA have better drivers/bios updates than we realize. Would fit with the delay on shipments. Going to have to stay up now and check the different reviews and trusted opinions.

    Good site to order H2O part from in US?

    don't be afraid to email or call Sidewinders/Petra's. They are both very good at those questions and getting you exactly what needed. Aigomorla turned me on to them little while back (see also his sticky thread for that and more advice)

    [FUDZ] The heart of AMD’s Llano is K8

    Once AMD has their newer plants up and running, in theory, yes. Easier, NOT easy though. Being tied to TSMC's scheduling (recent nVidia scheduling as example) has pushed several factors back. Including TSMC's decision part way into BB/BD designs to skip a generation of die shrinks. Hence the...

    Anand Sandy Bridge performance preview is up

    As put forward on several business sites.... Yes and Yes. Cross licensing about the only resolution that made sense for Motherboards and other 3rd parties. Imagine if only one of AMD or Intel got rights to DDR4. Not fair in competition. In several recent settlements on both sides were cross...

    [FUDZ] The heart of AMD’s Llano is K8

    Part of the problem is the fact that TSMC decided to skip a die shrink. Global foundries has 3 new plants due to be finished in next year. Once those are up and going, wave bye bye to TSMC and hopefully die shrinks/new cores should stay on release schedules. One of the main reasons for AMD going...

    Bulldozer requires new socket, AM3+

    So, let me get this straight (feel free to help me out here Aigo) Intel kicks 3 different sockets in 16 months. AMD uses 3 over 4.5 YEARS and people whine? Ok, my choice from wisdom of wiser people than myself to upgrade to an AM3 processor that will drop straight in my soon to be AM3+ mobo...

    Help chosing parts for a watercooling

    Get the Silver, buy it once and drop it in a coke once a year to remove any tarnish, never buy additive again. Better for the environment and the wallet.

    Just can't decide on which CPU... what's wrong with me?

    You forgot the whole AM4 socket and then newer super chipset, LMAO.:rolleyes: With background noise about "quad channel" ram, DDR4 would be the perfect terminology for it. Sry Bupkus about longer post, wasn't how deep of an explanation how to go through to help. Decided last winter to ditch the...

    Just can't decide on which CPU... what's wrong with me?

    Hope some of this translation will help see where knowing at least a minimum of terminology will help in making solid decisions on parts etc. The newer games can eat up older hardware in a hurry. Some of the games used in the comparison charts when they review Vid cards can give you ideas where...

    Just can't decide on which CPU... what's wrong with me?

    Paid attention to my deals. Bought a Biostar Mobo combo deal that dropped the price of the 955be to $125 (New Years special). Was buying the Mobo (a ddr2 790GXE) anyway, combo deal gave me the $40 off both. I count it towards the CPU because that was part I could NOT pass up overall price. Would...

    Just can't decide on which CPU... what's wrong with me?

    Grabbed a 5770 Open Box XFX (got warranty after registering at XFX) for around $110 at Egg. Left me spare cash for DDR3 upgrade. With 955be and newly acquired ASRock 890FX am pretty solid until after Bulldozer goes live. You can get bang out of buck and still have fun at gaming, etc. 5770-$110...

    The new Coolermaster HAF X is available for sale!

    Many of the experienced WC's say to just use zippies unless you care about looks. Cheaper always works for me, and you can always get colored zip's to match case/mobo colors if want.

    That is one reason I liked your general layout of parts. If you can assemble your own computer, you can do this basic Water Cooling Setup.

    The new Coolermaster HAF X is available for sale!

    I believe from the spec sheets from CM's website, it did call for 3x120mm fan option and/or radiator. Was more worried from your earlier comment about " as the weight from the radiator full of water may very well be to much for the mounting holes i observed." Long as does look like it can hold...

    For not much more $$ than your talking about for fans... Consider the CM HAF 932. Mondo amounts of room, nearly completely future proof, And TOPS when it comes to cooling. Comes with and abundance of fans already. Should be able to cool anything you throw at it short of 3 way SLI 470/480's...
