Quad Core Battle

Yorkfield Extreme Edition based on the 45nm Penry core architecture will meet heads-on with AMD Altair based on the 65nm K8L core in Q3 2007. Both are quad core offerings but AMD touted theirs to be a native quad-core with dedicated 512KB L2 cache for each core and an additional 2MB L3 cache for the 4 cores to share. Intel has different plans for Yorkfield. Instead of sharing L2 cache for all the cores, the L2 cache size is further increased. Due to its advanced 45nm process technology, Yorkfield XE is able to pack a total of 12MB L2 cache (2 x 6MB L2) and still achieving a much smaller die size. The clock speed is significantly higher at 3.46-3.74GHz too.

Moze da bude, samo sta im znaci ovo "native". Jel to kao direktna veza a ne preko FSB-a, i koliko bi to ustvari poboljsalo performanse?

[Kostarum Rex Persia]

native znači nativno, tj. istinsko rešenje bez kuka i kvaka. Npr. quadcore Intel Kentsfield nije native rešenje.

What is known is that Barcelona—as AMD has dubbed this first iteration—isn't so much a brand-new architecture as it is a highly refined, tweaked version of the existing AMD x86-64. Those tweaks are numerous and significant. It's probably fair to suggest that Barcelona is to the current Opterons as Intel's Core 2 is to the Pentium M—designed from the ground up, on a base of the old with a lot of new stuff rolled in.

Vec vidjeno ali malo opsirnije.Naime Intel ce sa procesorom na 3.5-4ghz u 45nm trositi manje od 50w a AMD ce sa 2.9ghz u 65nm trositi 90w.Velika razlika zar ne?Sigurno AMD ce da smisli do izlaska nesto ali ce i Intel.

bez obizra na sve "AMD till the end" .

Lepo, shto se performansi tice.Ali izgleda mi da AMD hoce po svaku cenu da ima najbrzi sistem.Tu je josh problem registered DDR2 memorije, potrosnje, dostupnosti...

[PAIN]

Budzenjem ghza i ne dobijaju bas mnogo a i podatak da ce stici do 3.5(nije na ovom linku "podatak") mi se bas i ne cini bas realan pre svega zbog potrosnje.

Provalite samo plocu, izgleda strava.Premijera bila u Italiji.Cela masina ustvari izgleda extra.Woooow im sooooo excited .Cene se krecu od 1000 do 1500$ a Intel Q6600 ce da bude od 850$.Naravno predpostavke su da ce AMD uz to sto je skuplji biti i brzi taman koliko je skuplji.Medjutim ploce ce biti dosta skupe.

Jedno izivljavanje na Kentsfieldu.Inquirer em sto prica gluposti em prvi i glupe testove.Ali lepo je videti sta moze ova zver.

Cudno mi je kako nikao da zazivi ova tema, jedna od zanimljivijih tema trentuno ali sta ja znam.Inquirer imao na testu AMD 4x4.http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=35535
