AMD and Globalfoundries claim 50% Improvement

nt300 · Dec 29, 2011, 02:41 AM

Enhanced Bulldozer (Piledriver) x86 Cores is being talked about. The same that will go into desktops. 50% improvement in GFlops in same power consumption is really good. This could help AMD get back in race

Quote:

AMD and Globalfoundries claim that Trinity will offer up to 50% improvement in GFLOPS performance with the same power consumption as currently available A-series "Llano" APUs or similar GFLOPS horsepower with 50% reduction of power consumption.

Quote:

While basic specs and peculiarities are known, it is still unclear how much more powerful will the enhanced Bulldozer (Piledriver) x86 cores be compared to the first-generation Bulldozer offerings and what will be different between the two iterations of the micro-architecture.

400 VLIW5 Cores @ 600MHz = 480GFlops
480 VLIW4 Cores @ 750MHz = 720GFlops

Done...

Llano
480GFlops = 100Ws
Trinity
480GFlops = 50Ws
720GFlops = 100Ws

More done...

Not surprised or shocked
