RV770 up to 50% faster than RV670, launch in June. excerption I wonder if they are still going to make the rumoured 4 core performance version (1 core for entry-level, 2 for mainstream) and if that 50% is core vs core kind of comparison. That would...

the same, same cores same manufacturing tech non support hyperthreading And AMD have higher Clock speed, just a little difference in cache, AMD has more cahce in L2 while Core i5 has more in L3. so what makes them both different in speed even though both have...

chance. Just a note on the first issue: Is this a first? Cheers! Just a note on the first issue: Is this a first? Cheers! Hmmmm..... I still think it's way too early to tell whether Conroe will be better than AM2. The...

X3 our hypothesis was validated. AMD simply made the wrong choice with going for a monolithic chip as their first quad core. For me, the phoronix benchmarks are a combination of disabled turbo and non intel-optimised softwar...

i7 has a lot to do with it. The reason for the q6600 having good scores but being a quad core with a low clock speed I believe has something to do with it's seperated cache for each part of the cpu. It was two dual cores put together basically. Probably why...

it. Gotta love AMD/ATI's marketing.... after Nvidia trounces the 4850 later this month, ATI will say “were chasing the mid market and aiming for lower power consumption" I wonder if ATI uses Intel or AMD Quads for there tests? :) 4870 is...
