AMD Readies Two More FX Series Processors

[Dent1]

NOW that is funny! I am so Laughing my ASS OFF!

trickson i am sure there will be no more comments after that vid. LoL

Did you understand the irony behind the video?

The video wasnt about Bulldozers performance. Do you know what they were making fun of? I will help you out if you are really stuck but I just want to see if you get the joke.

AvonX, this goes for you too. Do get get what the joke is about?

 

[trickson]

Please thank me for the video

We need to stop "digging" At AMD. The ultra fanboys are getting upsad and mad

I love AMD they are the best! I would trade my current set up to ANY one for a Phenom or BD ANY DAY! So think about that! Yes this is not sarcastic or BS! I would do it at the drop of a hat!

 

[AvonX]

No the joke is that the bulldozer is not even close to what it was named.
So i think that vid is valid to me.

Actually I was not even thinking about this like you think. I have been in construction all my life and was thinking of a friend of mine that was doing this very same thing! He was so pissed off!
But go on tell me your joke.
Instead of a bulldozer they got a broken down backhoe?

Lol

Nope. Nothing to do with Bulldozer being broken down (or faulty or its performance).

The date stamp is 14th October 2011. This was before Bulldozer was released. Nobody knew it's performance, all we had was speculation. AMD kept delaying the Bulldozer's launch over and over again. The vehicle representing Bulldozer in the video is AMD being slow to release it to market.

Edit: for correction. "Backhoe vehicle representing Bulldozer".

so if core i series is so good why havent you upgraded?

Oh. But that is not a bulldozer at all. It is a backhoe. So one could conclude that instead of a bulldozer they got a broken down Backhoe! Know what tool you have and what tool you are talking about it a key to how much one knows about construction.

OK to get back on topic.... the FX-6200 and likely all of these current revisions are probably due to binning, which is something AMD tends to do recently.

Examples: Phenom II X4- 920,925,940,955,965,970,975,980........ I know I missed a couple.

Intel tends to be consumer binnable.. i.e. same model #'s and specs but certain serial #'s work much better/higher overclock's than others.

FYI-On stepping for these chips- I attached a screenshot of my FX-6200 which has a B2 stepping not B3 and the same is likely true for these other models. Translation= binned

As if we did not know the meaning,but still it is funny.
Did i make some people today smile and happy?
Well yes,so where is the problem?

 

[trickson]

so if core i series is so good why haven't you upgraded?

I am broke. Every thing I get goes to keeping my HOME!

problem is thread crapping

LMAO, you got that right bout WA, COL is ridiculous in WA.

Only person who makes sense of this matter as the others are being morons as normal

Yes, yes it is. I would be glad to trade any one if they are unhappy with there BD for sure.

 

[AvonX]

You know something? (I was an AMD fan)
Until i saw that that notebook benchmark today.

 

[eidairaman1]

Yes, yes it is. I would be glad to trade any one if they are unhappy with there BD for sure.

honestly i wouldnt trade a BD or PH2 for core 2 due to no upgrades.

What sucks is Intel is dropping 1155 for 1150 already.

Point well taken, But even in binning Intel makes sure you get some form of performance increase and when AMD did this with the Phenoms it was so. Not a backwards or lateral move.
Why are they doing this with BD?

 

[Dent1]

Oh. But that is not a bulldozer at all. It is a backhoe. So one could conclude that instead of a bulldozer they got a broken down Backhoe! Know what tool you have and what tool you are talking about it a key to how much one knows about construction.

The tool used is irrelevant to the concept of the video. If its back to slinging mud. OK

I am broke. Every thing I get goes to keeping my HOME!

That what happens when you aspire to be a construction worker

If you are broke maybe you should humble yourself. AMD's midrange solutions is more up your alley for your financial situation.

Not cool :shadedshu

 

[eidairaman1]

to sell chips for 1 and make revenue, replace older models with newer binned/stepped models. Sell them to OEMs for their machines. More models with different price points. Its the same with Video cards too.

Intel did this with the 2700k and same with the 2500k.

No I am not slinging mud. Just pointing out facts from what I seen in the video.

Well not every one can be a rocket scientist like you. Some one has to build things and your HOME!

im guessing thats slow right now?

First and final warning. Stay on topic or I'm just handing out vacations instead of infractions. Any post below this that fails to stay on topic will be dealt with.


It's best you don't reply to this post because I'll count that as well. I'm fed up with the level of immaturity coming from some TPU members. I'd much rather the immature people just be gone than having to deal with them any longer.

Stay on topic

and again...

Stay on topic.

Thank you.

Let's knock off the personal references/trashing.
IF you an't discuss things in a civil manner, we will be giving vacations.

Right- All AMD does is fill in more steps/price points. Take a look at the specs of the AMD systems in Walmart, etc... lots of different spec'd chips (weird chips). This is actually ideal for OEM PC maker's selling to big retailers like Wal-Mart (Wal-Mart tells them the price).. all the OEM needs to do is adjust their spec's using AMD's various models to restore their profit margins.

They did this with Phenom 1 which was actually a Broken Part, Bulldozer is not so much broken as it is a server processor packed in a desktop socket. I dont see server market users complain about the parts, I mean to me seems BD is a heavy lifter for multithread but when it comes to everyday desktop use it cant be saturated with enough data to make use of its true performance. I see Piledriver being a major fix to BD arch bringing performance for the desktop user
