L3 cache 16MB is good!
 
AMD should focus on making chips for mobile.No matter how hard they try,Intel still lead them.For example their 8 core bulldozer.also kana bulldoze by i5-2500k..
 
Intel 50 core CPUs

These are not multi-core CPU. These are multi-frame-multi-board supercomputers. I am talking about a single silicon die has 16 core only from AMD now.

The AMD Opteron supercomputers have few thousand cores ;)

I wish to see competition into mobile CPU against ARMS also. Something else have to be available from alternate source other than this monopoly.
 
any benches to show?

I have not begin to find that yet. :D came across a video of test / upgrade however.

the xeon is the counterpart. How does the xeon compare to this?


This isn't a gaming cpu anyway so it doesn't get much coverage.

Intel lags behind AMD in their professional products such as Xeon vs Opteron. Not to mention their original Itanium 64 bit flagship processor died and got replaced by AMD x86_64 which is standard now. Then after Itanium mati Intel licensed AMD x86_64 to make their consumer products + Xeon.

Xeon can not even beat their Sandy Bridge i-7 extreme, Xeon top spec is below, 10 core 2.4GHz only. Cost a bomb! = SGD$5K/pc

Ah i see UY.

I just got a new sandy bridge 2600k cpu very good for occing. I could have waited for ivy bridge to come out so that the cpu of SB would have fallen but i said fuck it not going to wait.


BTW i think ivy bridge cpus might leap frog over amd this time.
