the advantages of bulldozer.

[jonnyp11]

How do we know that? Because AMD have said so. Ive read that it would even boot with any overclock what so ever. That is a broken product. Also, when it does come out (finally) I hope it goes well, but it will be competing thereabouts with Ivy Bridge. However its true, it would be very remarkable if it wasn't better than the previous architecture, but advantages specifically, noone can say.

did you not get the part about leaving what it will be better than open? i was saying it will be better than SOMETHING, whether that be a athlon xp like my comp, or the sandy bridges, that's still better than something.

bigfella, sometimes you're so stubborn and overly serious, relax and learn to laugh.

If a processor does not overclock it does not mean the product is broken. Manufacturers clock their processors at a certain clock speed for a reason. If I were to constantly run my car engine at redline rotations per minute and then damage the engine the fault would be my own.

Granted most present desktop processors overclock well with proper cooling, but if they do not overclock it doesn't mean they are broken.

Oh, but what's a CPU to a computer enthusiast without overclockability?!

There are no advantages yet, as it hasn't been released.

Redundant prelude to what you really wanted to say, instead of being on topic with what advantageous changes...

what changes will be made from AMDs line of CPUs now to the new FX series?

Appearantly you don't know what they are since all you have to contribute to the thread are things like how a company, such as AMD, could leave their current product in the dust so they can replace it with one that sucks balls.

An advantage is condition or circumstance that puts one in a favorable or superior position.

That's not the only thing advantage is. It's also a benefit resulting from a course of action. You know what I mean, right? Kinda like how a reply to this thread should be a course of action with benefit.

Advantage? It'll make Phenoms and Athlons even cheaper!

There are no advantages yet, as it hasn't been released. Also, the latest revision was so unstable at 4GHz that they had to go back to the drawing board. I hope its a great chip, but this thread is a bit premature.

This is kinda strange since you say its premature to talk about it. But I guess it doesnt apply if you just talk about what you think will be bad about it from fake benchmarks.

Let me ask a question.

If someone started a thread about the changes/advantages that Ivybridge will have over sandybridge.

1. Would you say its premature to talk about it, but then talk about what you thought Ivybridge bad points were.

2. Or give a glorified five paragraph story how how good it will be till people threw up and choked on it.

^^^^ Agreed

and linkin, i hope that happens, but i doubt it will as they're alread wening them out of the market and the prices haven't dropped much, but newegg might do a all amd sale or something when bulldozer comes out for all non-updated motherboards and am3 cpus, that would be nice.
