AMD is pressing ahead with the strategy they pursued with BD. PD will only be 5-10% slower than BD on heavily threaded tasks. AMD techs say that Windows 9 will take more advantage of the capabilities of the heavily threaded PD than Windows 8. Plus, wait till you see BS which follows PD!

Look, anyone who is just a regular home user who does some video and audio editing, plays some 3-D games, reads his emails, does some instant messaging, browsing and watches 1080p movies will be very happy using a 2500k or 2600k. We don't need anything faster and we don't need AMD at all. Ivy...

What does it tell you when the 2nd biggest computer CPU designer (AMD) can't even correctly count how many transistors are on their new CPU line (FX)? They're not off by a few transistors? They're off by 800 million? LMAO. AMD can still make a CPU that lets you browse the web and email but how...

If AMD wants to sell any of these chips to any of the major desktop computer manufacturers like Dell, HP, Acer, etc., they will have to drop the price of this chip to them to not more than $149. Any more than that and they will not sell more than a handful of these chips to those companies. We...

HP has decided to come out with a new line of desktop, notebook, netbook and tablet PCs and smart phones that will replace its entire current lineup. The new lineup of products will exclusively use HP's tried and true "RPN or Reverse Polish Notation". HP hopes this new move will help HP file...

Until a tablet can do everything and do them as easily and as well as a PC does them, tablets will just be plaything toys. If tablets running Windows 8 will allow easy syncing with PC's, easy printing and scanning by incorporating drivers for all common printers and scanners, easy WiFi and 4G...

I have a 50 year old vacuum tube PC that runs the internet, emails, instant messaging and videos just fine. I have to change one of the 20,000 vacuum tubes once in a while---we're switching to low greenhouse gas fluorescent tubes instead of incandescent bulbs to preserve the environment---and...

He can find AMD a better, smarter CEO who doesn't use tired cliches like "I want AMD to become a predator."

Look when Intel will make a 11 nm cpu, they will be able to create one that has 16 cores running 32 threads at more than 5 GHz at a maximum TDP of 65 watts. That will be enough to keep all apps and processes running without delays. Then I will be able to play Hearts, send an email, receive an...

Rory Read is a flash in the pan. By 2014, you'll need to consult Wikipedia to find out what he ever said or did. Look and listen to this guy. Would you trust your multi billion dollar company to this poser? Excuse me while I barf. Looks like we're stuck with Intel. Note to those who are looking...

Do AMD best new CPUs let me play Solitaire or Hearts and let me email or send some newfangled thing called a chat or instant message? Should I trust AMD?I watch Sally on TV. She no talk about AMD. Never saw a commercial, an ad or anything that said AMD. Is AMD as fast as a grapefruit, a snail, a...

Dave Chappelle in a Rick James skit had a funny and yet sad punch line: "Cocaine is a helluva drug." Used to be most American CEOs worked their asses off, now it seems many of 'em just sell their assets off. American companies have to end their obsession with beating the market's quarterly...

@arentwelucky: You seem to be a little confused. I never said that Sandy Bridge with its integrated graphics is a better solution. Intel doesn't pretend to offer high end gpu performance integrated on a cpu. AMD does. I just said that the new AMD fusion chips graphics' ability is not sufficient...

You'd think that the major shareholders and members of the board of directors of HP would request that Leo have a full mental exam including psychiatric and psychological testing and assessments. The guy instead of being a visionary may just have a few screws loose. Yes, the HP TouchPad running...

Look, this guy Rory Read is talking fraternity boy rubbish and nonsense about AMD being a predator. No one buys AMD cpus because they prefer them to Intel cpus. They buy them because they're cheaper and supposedly barely acceptable performance-wise for their intended purposes.AMD's new CPUs are...
