K10 Breaks 30,000 in 3DMark06

this is the top scorer in 3D MARK 06 and if they did bet it why not upload it to 3D MARK 06 online for proof and weres a screen shot!!!:p

If this is true, I congratulate AMD for the job well done, but you are forgeting someting... the K10 is better than Conroe and Kentsfield cores but about Penryn i don't know if it's better since C2D came out after K8 and it has a great performance increase about AMD.:rolleyes: This is going to be the same I presume.
 
12k for a CPU score isnt so unrealistic. Ever since K7 the AMD architecture has always been much more efficiant than Intels, it wouldnt surprise me if they have done it again. I personally wont hold much weight until I see solid proof, and with how much money AMD has lost, these new CPUs are gonna be expensive.. so they better be cum-tacularly awesome.
 
weres the proof i think a overclocked QX6850 at 5.1Ghz would be pretty close to a stock AMD K10 in mid range and looking at 3D Mark 06 online the top score is on a Blitz Extreme motherboard with DDR3 and just below that the asus striker extreme that is oced higher but the Blitz Extreme bets it because of the DDR3 memory
 
i just found out what my mark is...

2059
 
3Dmark06 is multithreaded, 05 isn't. I score about the same in both 05 and 06 because of that little fact.

so what score u getting? you saying your getting 15K + in 3dmark06 with 1 card?

thats wat i was thinking


p4 to K8 again?

C2D to K10 amy be the same deal? i sure as hell hope so
 
I really want to believe this is true, because Intel prices will plummit. CPUs are way too fast as it is, this will just make the game more interesting.
 
Its called an NDA.

But the thing is with the saying it's a NDA is that wouldn't releasing this article already be against the NDA? Anyways didn't someone one say it was because it was an ES?
 
I'm sorry, but I just don't buy this. I think it's fake.

Not if the author never signed any papers.

Idk if AMD would give out a cpu without having people signing papers saying they'd give them back etc.

You guys know nothing about NDA leaking. :laugh:

If you don't sign the NDA, chances are you're not allowed to actually play with the hardware.

He probably watched someone.

Besides, futuremark doesn't let people publish pre-release scores a lot of times too.
 
dilligaf. Its all speculation until release.
 
Honestly, I kinda hope these results are true. It'd make for a more interesting competition between Intel and AMD. I'm not a fanboy, and I'll just go for whatever component is better at the time. I like seeing competition though because that way there's a better chance prices could be lowered :D.

But right now, I can't believe this, not until I see some hard evidence. It could be possible though, the barcelona is true quad core rather than a 2 dual cores on one chip. Honestly I don't know how much of a difference that makes between that and true quad-core.

should make a big diff the chips are way diff architecture adn the intels are saddled with comunicating accross intels overtaxed FSB AMD chips wont have that issue due to 1 they have onboard mem controllers 2. the ues HT instead which operates faster (in most cases). heck my s754 still has a higher data rate than a extreme edition intel 1600mhz stock freq. vs 1333 for an intel now im not saying mines faster in any way but just pointing it out
 
BLAST FROM THE PAST


FUGGER brought this up at XS
http://www.theinquirer.net/en/inquirer/news/2007/08/28/amds-3ghz-k10-to-break-30000-3dmark06
The particular piece of equipment that was briefly in our possession allowed us to run 3DMark06, the most important to overclockers worldwide, and Everest 4.0, our favourite memory benchmark..

Maybe they didn't know what was really in the machine....maybe the IDs were masked.....WHO KNOWS!

Maybe they knew better, than to tell the whole true story........
 
Yeah, thanks for this thread. It helped me lose a lot of money in AMD stock.:laugh:
 
NP any time!!!!


I hope you held on to it.....I see them coming back at some point.
