AMD FX 8150 Looks Core i7-980X and Core i7 2600K in the Eye: AMD Benchmarks

It logically should mean that, but I'm not certain that's the case. You also have to consider that there are literally 0 cards on the market that support 3.0 and even need that kind of bandwidth.

so, i guess we should have stuck with ISA then... cause when that was the standard, nothing was ever made to go faster.

What's your point? Of course the next generation of a family will out-perform the previous generation.

I don't think you get what I am saying. If the sides are true then they still are a generation behind intel and two when SB-E hits. I wanted to see better numbers for AMD for competition's sake but we will take what we can get nowadays.

ViperXTR · Sep 26, 2011

can the current cards really saturate the PCI-E 2.0 bandwidth? (HD 6990 and GTX 590 cards)

No, if the slides are correct, they caught up with Intel. SB-e is in a whole different marketplace and not targeted for competition. IB is Intel's next generation chip and AMD will have Piledriver to compete with that.

Are you two the same person? It's weird having a different person reply for someone else, and take credit for writing the post I originally responded to.

Not exactly what I meant, but I suppose if you plan on keeping your system for half a decade you could upgrade based on which one offers PCI-E 3.0 currently.

Mussels · Sep 26, 2011

the systems have to upgrade to the new standard, or no video card companies will make mainstream products that use it.

if that means that some of the early products are imperfect (8x 3.0) to reach the point everyone decides to support it... well, i'm fine with that. i dislike the dodgy marketing about it all, however.

I definitely see your point, and I am glad that someone is breaking the water, but I personally will wait until it's perfected to adopt.

Sb(1155)> 980x,990x. Or whatever the # is.(x-58). They caught up to the out going series.....which is still a mighty feat in itself.. looking forward to 3rd party benches. The winner will be my next machine. I am ensabrenoir (en sabah nur). The first one and there is only 1 such as I :rockout:

Thought you were talking to me at first but then the quote looks different upon further inspection. Wasn't trying to confuse you. :toast:

The slides picked the weaker Intel offering in each aspect of certain cpus in each category to make their case. If you don't see that then feel free to buy many bulldozers. I am more impressed by AMD's effort with brazos. If brazos was sold cheap enough than it could dominate in emerging markets where there isn't as much competition with Intel on the R&D side. AMD needs to force their A8 series down in price and sell more units in that midrange market. They sold out most places I looked at buying it from so unless yields are bad the A8 must sell well. I don't see AMD making a big difference with bulldozer. Sure, die hard fans that bought Phenom II x4 at launch will most likely buy bulldozer but Intel will still reign supreme unless AMD figures out a way to win the price war.

The price graph was way off. Didn't even enumerate individual item costs. So it was more propaganda than a valid graph.

But they surpassed SB in multithread if these benches are true, so they caught up with SB. That last part made me laugh.

I can't wait to see how BF3 performs on this.

I can see that as plain as day, I'm not even certain these are real. But this performance would definitely be acceptable to me, if the results are real, for a $245 CPU.

I am tired of waiting, and am trying to make myself not care, not very successful so far.

Well, it really can't be too much longer. They've run out of reasons to delay it.

I do agree with the past due.

If I may say a few things

I've been a fan of intel in my early years (Junior High) up till my freshmen years. I made numerous rigs for my friends and family, in all of them I have 1 rule "keep the purpose in mind, and no heroes in the components". I buy components with equal measure, what use is a V8 engine with junk transmission and even worse chassis? if you got monster processor be sure to have enough to buy the rest of the monster zoo (RAM, Motheboards, etc).

But the Sandy bridge still has PCI-E Gen 3 READY! (not fully, the ones that have full support are too expensive), and AMD still uses Gen 2. I want the whole deal, a great Processor, an almighty Chipset, fast RAM, and a mesmerizing VGA card.

All I need is patience, when the ATI/AMD 7000 comes, a new Chipset emerges, you can bet Gen 3 is bug free, and all the goodies are in the maket. Then will I buy, unless my girlfriend wants me to marry her or something else needs my set aside cash. :toast:

I don't know, you tell me. When you see only a 7% drop in performance from 16x bandwidth to 4x bandwidth do you think they maybe limited by PCIe 2.0?

personally i think that test needs to be redone to check for increases in microstutter, and not just average FPS.
