TaPaKaH Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 current samples actually do have same clock walls, only more cores and improved by ~15% single-threaded performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamer Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Question is, will it be as good for 3D01 as Sandy Bridge ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 Of course. It'll be 15% faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K404 Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Weird to think BCLK overclocking will be back and yet still things don't change in terms of scaling..... weird architecture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massman Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 Weird to think BCLK overclocking will be back and yet still things don't change in terms of scaling..... weird architecture.  BCLK overclocking is not back, they just added more straps to play with. Instead of the single 100MHz ref clock, you'll now have 100, 133/150(?), 166, 200 and 250MHz.  I kind of expect there to be not much added wiggle-room, though. These settings are basically clockgen registry settings. I expect them to be linked to the PCI/USB still. So, probably it will be like:  100MHz strap => 100-110 MHz 133MHz strap => 133-144 MHz 166MHz strap => 166-182 MHz 200MHz strap => 200-220 MHz 250MHz strap => 250-275 MHz  So, re-introduction of "fsb hole"-type of problem.  (ofcourse, this is pure speculation, but it makes sense for me ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dumo Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 (edited) It seems like it...if SB-E stuck @ 53X average then BD that can scale with cold probly will be a short cut.... Â Time to dust off your venom pot and put the single stage back in the drawer...and hold on to your 58X/59X:) Edited August 24, 2011 by dumo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
