AMD "Zembezi

[illfindu]

Hey im looking towards the future and I'm eyeing the AMD 8 core bulldozer CPU'S coming down the line. I'v seen some source say there going to use a AM3+ Socket and im wondering if that means youll be able to toss one in a current AM3+ compatible board?
Will my current http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130297&nm_mc=OTC-Froogle&cm_mmc=OTC-Froogle-_-Motherboards+-+AMD-_-MSI-_-13130297 msi 870A Fuzion work i noticed just now that its a AM3 not a AM3+ I'm guessing that means ill need a new mother board cause the sockets are comparable?

I dont know why this thread turned from discussing amd cpus to comparing them to intels (which is still on topic), then showed me a picture of a canteen lady, and lastly nintendo processor ( 0_o )

anyways,

What I want AMD to do is to make the desktop processors rectangular instead of square because after I've used a processor to its end of life, I turn them into chains ( and sometimes wear them to parties! jk), I put them carefully in their death grave (a box I have filled with 4 processors now), where hopefully they will static and get destroyed. xD

So, AMD, Make rectangular desktop processors Plz!! I love the rectangular Opterons!

I am well aware, that's why I didn't make any comments or anything. 😉

My post merely shows that Intel does put their processors on sale, the 950 came down in price previously too.

Intel just hasn't been forced to put their stuff on sale due to its competition.

If BD does prove to be a worthy performer, Intel will have to price their processors accordingly, which will be good news for people waiting for Ivy Bridge. ;

Who cares, i dont care. What i care is BULLDOZER Should tear apart i7 and sandybridge and thats what i am waiting for. Enough of GANG "Intel"

HAHAHA :lol: Good idea, but i'd rather love to sell them instead of wearing them(weird fashion to hit the globe lol)

Every square is a rectangle.

You should turn them into folders for our team, we need some more people to do Folding@Home to get us up in the higher ranks.

I'll help ya guys with it when I get a Geforce card , btw squares are not rectangle 😛

This is what I want:

"In Euclidean plane geometry, a rectangle is any quadrilateral with four right angles."

Lets not get into non-euclidean CPUs.

So, SpongeBob Squarepants is actually SpongeBob Rectanglepants?? My 4-yr-old son will be quite disappointed 😛

Every square is a rectangle, but not every rectangle is a square.

I know what you meant, I'm just being a smart donkey right now.

We would have to get new coolers though.

I think it would be kind of cool to have a star shaped CPU. It probably wouldn't perform optimally, but it would be interesting to have one.

Too bad Phenom II is just as rectangular as the rest of 'em. Sort of a let down. 🙁

 

[enzo matrix]

You would waste a lot of wafers if it was star shaped. Then cutting them new machinery the works. in the end the consumer pays for it. Keep em like it is its cheaper

Not like you would see the die anyway. Just make the heatspreader and PCB star shaped 😛

 

[EXT64]

You could always do it yourself 😀

Though it seems like it would be quite a letdown - because as soon as you put the cooler on, you wouldn't be able to see it anymore

meh my hyper 101 only touches 70% of my square CPU when its placed in the middle, and still after adding a second 80mm fan, the temps dont go above 50c @ 3.2 GHz L3 enabled (cant show ss's coz my mb is sent to RMA)

and also the am3 bracket is rectangular as is 😛
just that there will be no support for old processors, which I dont care about 😛

We should make mobos with pink PCBs.

Edit: Just to show how manly your X58 mobo is.

Guys again, focus on thread.

Any news on Bulldozer @ Hanover...the CeBit Showcase?

 

[h0devil]

^ still nothing T_T

 

[g00fysmiley]

^^ just mroe about the archetecture, but everythign said has already been out for a while

 

[kilo_17]

I wish AMD would hurry up with Bulldozer, give us more details.

AMD must do something to push BULLDOZER out asap.

 

[enzo matrix]

I agree. They should skip some of their testing.

 

[asiarules]

^ and screw them up like how they did with the phenom 1s ?

I agree if something like that comes out then they should take as much time as they want(maybe a decade) 😛

Does anybody remember when I said "don't get too excited about CeBIT"?

If you weren't following my blogs or in these forums (ie. 99.9999% of the world) there might be news. But for the hardcore bulldozer junkies you just aren't going to hear anything that has not been made public.

check this, if bulldozer aint coming early then thats okay cuz they are planning to push Llano first http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdPi4GPEI74

and good news Llano is also coming in desktops

Honestly, Llano excites me more than Bulldozer. It has shear potential for notebooks if the power envelope is right.
