So, lets get this straight. AMD, a manufacturer of Hardware, specifically in this case CPU's is in over its head because the SOFTWARE that google is using is not ready?
Am I missing something? I have read a far more in depth release regarding this and at no point does it say that AMD is developing the software, the developers of the software were referred to several times as a separate entity.
Does anyone have more facts on the actual setup of this deal regarding who is responsible for supplying what?
im agreeing with malphadour. amd is a hardware vendor not software. it also mentions the nvidia hardware as if it is a new platform that does not have support, whichwould also not be amd's problem. i have not read anything into this although i think tgdaily had mentionmed it. still can someone clarify what AMD has to do with this other than cpu's
Ding ding ding, we have a winner. AMD does not have hardware bugs (nor does Intel). Both chip makers produce chips that run software. I do not understand exactly why Google is using new software rather than whatever they currently use, but you gotta face it:
We rarely ever deal with CPU hardware bugs, we just deal with benchmarks, temperatures, and overclocking to the max.
Referring Inquirer in anything is an act of monority and you have done just that. Congrats.
Being unable to make the difference between software and hardware is also a big achievement. Congrats again.
Now stop and try to "think", who is over his head in here?
Google got googled....come on amd just doen't have the what the big boys need...People just need to know their limitations.....
Said by a Fanboy... Damn I Hate you guys ! AMD has the "big boys" needed... The Opteron is the best CISC server chip available...
Like all have said, this is a software issue, created by the differences in how the AMD setup is used, compared to the older intel, and this is causing problems... Thus, SOFTWARE(google), not Hardware(AMD) problem...
They did, but I don't think it was very good, so they struck up a deal with Nvidia. That was back in the day, maybe the 761 chipset when they hit 1 GHz ?
