Abstract: While Turbo Core did not help the Unigine Tropics frame-rate, the CPU was left running much warmer. In addition, the overall system power consumption was up. In this brief look at Cool 'n' Quiet and Turbo Core 2.0 for AMD's latest-generation Bulldoze...
Abstract: GCC 4.6 and 4.7 had regressed with GraphicsMagick when setting the first-generation Bulldozer optimizations while the Open64 performance was not affected. However, when enabling the highest optimization level with bdver1, the regression was erased. ...
While we don't want to give the impression that the i7-3930K is a slow CPU for consumer applications and games, it isn't significantly faster than the Core i7-2600K. This is a problem for Intel, as the i7-3930K is almost exactly double the price; LGA20...

Abstract: New Benchmarks First up some newer benchmarks tested on the Asus Crosshair V (Bios 9911) for the AMD CPUs and for the 2600K on the ASUS P67 Dlx and finally the i7 990X on the Asus Rampage 3 Extreme. Common parts used where : Corsair Dominator PC12800C...
Abstract: During that period, new operating systems with improved thread schedulers will come along and there will be a chance to see how the next generation 'Piledriver' update of the Bulldozer fixes any initial issues. Bulldozer's architectural premise that ...
Based on the tests we've conducted, the only end-users who could benefit from the new AMD chip are PC professionals that deal with sophisticated audio and video encoding, rendering, virtualization, and/or heavy workstation/server loads which max out C...
