AMD will be OK thanks to the new FX-8xxx line-up.

I always thought 4300 is priced similiar to I3, but I was wrong. I found that 6300 is priced in the similar I3 range ... :(

AMD delays the delay -Kaveri- is its last competitive market gone?

I was planing on having an High END kavari APU. If AMD doesn't publish this on time, they are dead to me

AMD delays the delay -Kaveri- is its last competitive market gone?

Technologically APUs make sense, with performance switching you can either use a low power APU chip for casual gaming / movies and hybrid crossfire a decent GPU on core games. Since you only need kind of hardware support, developers won't be that lazy to optimize for crossfire. When that game is...

AMD's move into ARM arena: Forbes source

Just browsing, of course this is wrong. You can just look into McCathyism in the 50s and see the techban is not going to work. Banning supercomputers Chinese developed fastest supercomputer in the world (that's couple yrs ago, donno now). Banning arm sells and now Chinese have stealth fighters...

Whos getting Vishera/new FX lineup?

Well, there is simply no need for a performance CPU for consumer market, given AMD is still committed to do Opteron server lines. For comsumer market, at least for gaming, the most demanding part is the graphics. For general software it's going to be parallelism, if we software engineers...

Last call before Vishera

I will wait for benches to come out ... At this point I cannot help to be skeptical. Some bench suggested a 15% increase from bulldozer (trinity vs bulldozer). Some suggested single digit (OBR for the arguments sake). Plus the rumored win8 fix on scheduler optimizations ( techreport suggested...

Question on Xeon Processor

Thanks cerb and 101, I will try to do both C++ and C# to see what would be the difference. I have done everything that matlab suggested to improve the performance of my functions in the original bench. From what I know, yes matlab inteprets / (compiles) a function once in the runtime for...

Question on Xeon Processor

Thanks for reply. Originally, I thought it would be because Xeon doesn't have a decent FPU. But that shouldn't be the case, because if I delete all the fprinf functions (not the use case I have, because I still want those debug messages here and there.) there is a noticible improvement of...

Question on Xeon Processor

Hi all, Recently, when I ran a Matlab program (Matlab 2011 a), I observed a noticable difference between an HP dv6z A8-3550mx (2.0/2.7GHz ) running Win8 and an DIY A8-3850 (2.9GHz) runing Win7. For curiousity sake, I decided to perform a little Matlab bench on my own. The "supposedly" fastest...

"AMD Moves Away From PCs Amid Steep Losses"

Agreed ... But the worst thing that is going to come is that some private equity guys buys AMD for cheap, spin-off ATI operation for about 2-billion, and extort intel on the x64 bit cross-licensing deal for another 2-billion settlement. And then sell the rest of the IP's for another couple...
