Apparently... Intel did it again. - Page 2

up to 16 cores is plain overkill

runawayprisoner · March 24th, 2008

Agreed. I barely have any use for 4 cores...

Phil · March 24th, 2008

They must be really ticked off at AMD about something....

runawayprisoner · March 24th, 2008

But 2.13GHz for each core?

Bus 533MHz? Which era do they come in?

Squall-Leonhart · March 24th, 2008

prototype samples usually do have low clocks.

Phil · March 24th, 2008

it doesent matter.....if you running that many cores...and have a piece of software that is coded for that many.....the speed will be insane, especially with the on chip memory..

runawayprisoner · March 24th, 2008

8MBytes L3 and 1MB L2?

Phil · March 24th, 2008

the design is not finalized...and remember, th cpu has on chip memory access (similer to AMD's ht bus

runawayprisoner · March 24th, 2008

Ya, I know. But AMD didn't benefit much from that.

Phil · March 24th, 2008

Intel will learn from AMD's mistakes, obviously..

runawayprisoner · March 24th, 2008

Or AMD will learn from Intel's mistake.

Anything about Nehalem chips are mostly papers and calculators up to this point... so I wouldn't hold my breath over it. Once I know they are hot, it's time to make some international calls and arrange... some packages.

wrong, AMD did benefit greatly from that, the biggest hold back is the low speed of memory currently, preventing quick ram reads and writes.

So in the end... they didn't benefit from it.

I mean... okay, you have higher RAM bandwidth, what's the practical use for that?

I have none right now.

Oh wait... I have some rare dual-core chip... and a not-so-rare-but-quite-good quad-core chip here. I've never heard anyone being able to get beyond 475MHz FSB with a Q9450... but I can obviously POST with 500MHz... so... I think that if you have a better motherboard, you can get to 4.00GHz easily with this chip.

It should run quite cool, too... because it doesn't require like... 1.4V for 4.00GHz.

Phil · March 24th, 2008

do hot women come with it?

runawayprisoner · March 24th, 2008

Nah... but if you attend a WR overclocking session, you may see some.

Thanakil · March 24th, 2008

We don't have need for 8/16 cores atm but one day we will, Intel is just planning a long time ahead.

I kinda hope that once we reach 8/16 we'll take a break tho... Wait a while and just chill a little

.

Phil · March 24th, 2008

I want AMD to kill intel.....ive neve had problems with them...except that they were slow

Nah... I say we stop at 32 cores, 64 threads, 64MB L2 Cache, 128MB L3 Cache, and SSE5.

Phil · March 24th, 2008

whats up with you guys???? why 32 cores.

How a bout one core...
