So it looks like AMD's pricing scheme is correct in terms of performance with its competition.

Seems that way, yes. I'm a bit concerned with a lack of products to match the high price ranges offered by Intel, but that's OK, I guess. I wonder what the low-end chips are gonna look like, in configuration, price, AND performance.

haven't seen one for 5Ghz on air so i would welcome that haha (phase change not realistic)

A 2500K will beat both of those.

Not in Dirt 3 though.

Not very good considering it's 8 core vs. 4 core.

A 2500K will beat both of those.

So it looks like AMD's pricing scheme is correct in terms of performance with its competition.

What about Hyper Threading? Those 4-cores turn to 8-cores. Let the real Bulldozers come out for real world benchies.

2500K doesn't have hyperthreading.

On top of that, HT doesn't double performance, not even close.

exactly lol....

for real world preformance gain from HT (atleast gaming) just look at the bar graph above HAHA the 2600k is the 2500k with HT, nothingelse is different.

it is clocked at 3.4Ghz and the 2500k is 3.3Ghz, the 2600k gets 2 more FPS

HT RULES!!!

heky · Sep 17, 2011

Nope, the 2600K also has more cache.

wait, if that graph is true, then doesn't FX-8150 beat 2600K by sizable margin (since 980x > 920 and 8150 > 980X) ? :eek:

It should. If the graph is true of course. I don't have an Intel system or Dirt 3 to test it myself.

Clock to Clock in games Zambezi = Thuban @ 1200p+

So, it's all dependent on how high you can overclock the sucker but games that abuse the full brute of 8 cores you should see astronomical gains over a Hyperthreading solution
(HTT in games makes the extra 1 thread be the prefetcher or puts it to sleep)
(CMT in games the game now has access to 8 cores each with the ability to prefetch while processing the game)

bulldozer won't be even close to a 2600k, check back for new intel cpus in 2013. ivy bridge is just a 22 nm shrink of sandy bridge, so not worth it if you already have a 2600k

really wizz? I'm sad now. I was hoping AMD would make a comeback in the processor market and we would see some awesome price wars.

As I see it, it will be same as first Phenom... Bugs, bugs, bugs... I just hope that I didn't bye my AM3+ board for nothing, and that second bulldozer will be better like Phenom II was... It is very frustrating for AMD fans that they are so slow in implementing new technologies... Hate to say it, but Intel does it much better. I know that Intel has much more money and resources, but I always tough about AMD engineers like very competent and resourceful...

i could care less about the article, if it didn't have proper BIOS then its worthless IMO, BUTTTTT did anyone else notice the corsair closed loop water cooler????? im realllly hoping it came with the processor like we have been hearing one might.

Anyhow his next post will probably be a link with some video that it shows how bulldozer can do 5ghz on air & 6ghz+ on drice...

No I don't think they are.... This is a repeat of other so called highest performing claims by the Athlon 64 and the original Athlon... Only time will tell.

I hope that there claim is true . But for some reason I just don't buy it . If AMD really did have all this and a bag of chips then why is it so secret and elusive ? I remember a time ( The Athlon days ) When AMD was calling Intel out . But now ? The silence is deafening !
