I love AMDPosted on May 22, 19:51
At the end of the day it is about placing a product that works well on the table. It doesn't matter if I complain or support AMD till then, the ball is completely in their court.Posted on May 22, 18:02
Barcelona evaluation... still 3 issue, but full decoders everything, on SSE code it must blow Core completely... did you do some low-level benches? What about cache latency?Posted on May 22, 17:29
Who came up with the "performance is a joke" comment?Posted on May 22, 15:46
Everyone was complaining about AMD being secretive about future products. AMD changed it and are being criticized again. All pls wake up and instead of throwing dirt on AMD support it as much as you can, coz amd lose=all losePosted on May 22, 05:11
Hey Ricky, Try to grasp this. R600 was started before AMD bought ATI, so blaming them for BOTH being late and not quite top-end performance compared to G80 hardly seems fair. It's either get it out the door or keep trying another 3-6 months. Smart move.Posted on May 22, 02:14
We have a 2.0GHz Barcelona evaluation system in our lab. The performance is a complete joke. It cant even keep up with E4300.Posted on May 22, 01:27
AMD is always right!Posted on May 21, 20:53
