I was commenting on WCG crunching numbers, specifically. I'm well aware of it's general dominance. ;)

Ahh, I see. I tend to consider the act of computation on a CPU to be referred to as "number crunching."

This isn't an AMD press release or anything. Heck, AMD didn't even advertise these chips. Bulldozer will be out in August/September.

I would have bought one of these if they were available instead of my 1090T. Logical upgrade 7750 -> 550 -> 960T. The best part of these chips is not the silly turbo, it's the E0 revision, with a low TDP.

The turbo core is actually kind of cool, but for those of us still rocking the 790FX chipsets, it causes all kinds of problems (at least on ASUS boards). But the throttling on Turbo Core 2.0 based around TDP sounds really cool and useful (particularly for those who do not overclock).

I remembered having read the article about AMD dropping out Zosma some time ago.

As an added value Turbo Core is fine but it's not a convincing buying factor, at least not for me with an old Deneb.

I wonder if AMD is already selling Bulldozer in Mongolia and we don't know yet :p
