AMD Phenom FX Deneb core

AMD Phenom™ FX processor


There's said to be two chips in the pipeline, the FX-80 at 4Ghz and the FX-82 at 4.4GHz.
The FX-80 at stock out performs a 5.0GHz Kentsfield.

The Deneb core apparently has a multiplyer of up to 25x!

can't wait to see this
 
If this turns out to be true, I'm all over it! The only problem is it will probably consume 300W! Time to get rid of the 5000+BE and get a new PSU too!
 


that sounds quite promising. for amd's sake i hope it's true. but that probably would use alot of power! i hope they make a decent performing one at a 95W TDP. thats the highest my motherboard supports 🙁
 
I like this quote from the Web-Site.......

""The AMD Phenom™ FX processor is the most advanced PC processor in the galaxy.
AMD Phenom™ FX processors deliver the ultimate megatasking experience,
providing direct and rapid information flow between processor cores,
main memory, and
graphics and video accelerators.""

Based on That, Nothing else on the Site is Believeable.

Oh, And Their Source - "We Found this JPEG on some HomePage for Some ComputerShop".

LOL!!!! Gotta Be True Huh?
 
I suppose its possible with the die shrink to concentrate on design flaw(s) that lead to the poor clocks on the 65nm Phenoms. The 6Mb cache probably wouldn't hurt either!! :sol:

It would help us all if the only decent AMD processor (price / performance) wasn't the ultra budget Opteron 1210 - competition and all that!! :wahoo:

Its isnt the first time GPUz returned bad info on new CPUs. Look at the freaking voltage.

I call Sheninagans on this one, but lets wait !!

*Dressing fire proff vest*
 
I call this a FUD. Some Chinese source claimed that AMD is going to release 3GHz version of Deneb a few month later, and I think these sources are more credible than this one.
 


Uhhmmm don't think so:

But the voltage on that thing is a joke (1.6V) it's like an Athlon XP core voltage (even my socket 940 Opteron 248 is 1.4V). At that high a level a 4Ghz processor would have like a 200+Watt TDP!!

If you squint... it really looks like 1.166v, not 1.6v on it.

But on the other hand... it took how long for AMD to finally get a 45mn beater for the 65mn Kentfield series?

Also, I'd like to know if it actually can run 4ghz, on air, and without too much problems in stablity. 😀
 


Uhhhmmm my bad.

[Adjusts specs. - lowers resolution to 800x600]

Why can't people post clear fake pictures!!

I guess that voltage would be right to run a CPU at 4Ghz.

Current Intel CPUs sail past 4Ghz relative ease while AMD chugs along in the slow lane... So this would be a big boost for AMD. Clock for clock the K10 architecture is not a million miles behind the C2D architecture.

I called fake as soon as I saw this.

There's said to be two chips in the pipeline, the FX-80 at 4Ghz and the FX-82 at 4.4GHz.
The FX-80 at stock out performs a 5.0GHz Kentsfield http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Core_2%23Kentsfield .

The core are "similar", but the AMD is the one thats behind. To have it suddenly take the lead, by a gig no less, is whats hard to believe. Deneb will be faster then Phenom, but by probably less then 10% for the most part. From what I know, there simply aren't enough changes to make it much faster clock for clock.

Seeing as AMD hasn't released a real chip faster then 3.2GHz (did they ever do 3.4GHz?), I don't think they can release a 4GHz right off the bat. Maybe a 3.6GHz, but not 4GHz. Besides, where did they find a stock 5GHz kents? I swear, some people will believe anything.
 
after a little googleing, i turned up some info on the planned FX-80.
The FX-80 was originally supposed to be 2.2 and 2.3 GHz. There was a FX-90 series that was to debut at 2.6GHz. However, this was back on '07 when the first Phenoms were coming.
This piece of info is probably a fake, but if AMD really does have a processor like this, I can't wait to get my hands on it.
 
Uhhhmm it's funny how the FX series seems to have died with the launch of the Phenom mark [strike]1.0[/strike] [strike]0.5[/strike] zero... :lol:
