Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

everything else is irrelevant. hopefully all the parts arrive mid next week.
It is difficult to respond to a post that has no meaning (specifically, duby's posts). In regards to sentence 5, that was a rhetorical question.
To be honest, I can't really offer any more specifics from my point of view without violating NDA, and AMD's LWP specification is available for all...
Don't bother, you have no clue what you're talking about. I've been in the field long enough to know bullshit when I read it. You were confused by profiling and still don't know what it is, you are completely confused about the theoretical idea of "RHT", and your ideas about asymmetric...
Nice one.
I can hardly figure out what you're saying anyways, you've horribly mangled the concepts of thread level parallelism. Why were you talking about branches again:
WTF? I can barely link your stringy line of conceptual ideas together... :rolleyes:
Moving onto asymmetric processing...
Absolutely, this extension can be used to tweak anything. So the claim that this is especially beneficial for multithreaded apps seems like an AMD marketing pitch to me.
That's not even what LWP does. Go read the spec.
As for "RHT", it is the exact opposite of power efficiency, so why even bother doing it, especially when the processor is rarely "wrong" to begin with.
Those amdzone people are retarded. LWP is just perfmon with feedback to software. Intel has announced something similar months ago (RT, I believe)
Back to topic, big fat no. No matter how you cut it, LWP and RT do not allow one thread to execute on two or more cores.
You know, only the truly desperate fanboy would resort to crazy conspiracy theories about whether the conroe demos in March 06 were rigged. They weren't because there was absolutely no reason to rig a damn thing, as everyone knows by now. The thing was a genuine *underclocked* C2D, and it was...
Hah, I worked on P4D and I remember the exact day it came out publicly and there was a big bunch of hoorah about coming out to market before X2. Quit with the revisionist history.
Do you recall store availability? I doubt it, since there is no way you actually bought a P4D.
