AMD FX-8150 Bulldozer On Ubuntu Linux Benchmarks

Don't do that... do clock to clock i5 2500K @3.3GHz/FX-8150 @3.3GHz or i5 2500K @3.9GHz/FX-8150 @3.9GHz or were you gonna do that?

Everything that can be similar needs to be similar

Of course. Both CPU's will be at 4ghz and I'll be using the same RAM at 1866mhz.
 
People underestimate Read's ability to help bitch slap Intel up-side-the-head.
Are people forgetting Read's great success at Lenovo?

At the time of Read’s departure, Lenovo had just marked the 7th straight quarter as the fastest growing PC maker in the world and had become the world’s third largest global PC manufacturer.

Blah blah blah. What-if's, what could be's, and whatever. You know what people like? Results. Let those do the talking.

Also can you do FRAPS+Game?

Most of the guys coming in have good track records or bad publicity and most of the guys going out have bad track records and good publicity

Fraps for everything. A lot of games don't have built in benchmarks. I have no idea what you mean in the 2nd part. If it's speculation on AMD's future, I don't care at all.

<-- AMD's Future is higher clocks
 
Higher clocks, so long as they fix the scailing of those higher clocks and keep the thermals down, it's a winner.

Piledriver -> 30 Watts or less Drop
Steamroller -> 15 Watts or more Drop
Excavator -> 30 Watts or less Drop

While increasing clock rates 300MHz or more per generation

FX-8170 3.9GHz->4.2GHz
1+ year gap
FX-8270 4.2GHz->4.5GHz
1+ year gap
FX-8370 4.5GHz->4.8GHz
1+ year gap
FX-8470 4.8GHz->5.1GHz

If nothing bad happens but this is pure speculation, I have no idea...
 
Piledriver Vishera CPUS will be AM3+ compatible so Id stick with ur current CPU until 2012Q3 when its released. maybe beter boards with PCIExpress3 will be released too. Otherwise its socket FM2 in 2013 + steamroller CPU.
