Kyle or Dan,
Considering all the benchmarks I have seen. I am wondering if the scaling issues are tied to both the hypertransport bus speed and the memory interface speed.
The rumor is that the AM3 version is going to be 4-8% faster at default speeds in memory bandwidth constrained applications. Also that the AM3 version is a slightly newer spin so there are other small improvement made to the chip.
IF, this this is true and it is corrected in the next version, do you think that the outcome will this modify your current opinion?
