One of the reason is the latest 2.6GHz Phenom has already carried the number 9950. So what is next? 10050 X4?

I thought the 140W TDP had something to do with it... you gotta draw the line somewhere.
MrWizard, I don't think even a 3GHz Phenom will stand much chance 'keeping up' with Nehalem. 4GHz maybe...
X9050 XTX Pro Turbo of course.One of the reason is the latest 2.6GHz Phenom has already carried the number 9950.
Probably not. AMD's optimistic "20% increase" includes frequency scaling, which implies low single digit per clock performance improvements. It also implies that the targeted frequency is not very high. Some might not find that very impressive.Deneb should in average be 10% faster than current Phenoms.

Um, because the subject was brought up by the poster I quoted.What does Intel CPU have to do with this?

Why don't you jump on him for going off topic?
FAILWell, he was talking about Deneb and how it could be a >2.6GHz Phenom.
Gee, it looks like he was talking about Intel Core 2 CPU performance, which I quoted and responsed to.Deneb should in average be 10% faster than current Phenoms.
So it will be VERY close to Core2, even outpacing it when FSB runs out of steam.

AMD's problem is that it is still struggling with the Q6600, which was released 18 months ago, and all the "problems" it has: no integrated memory controller, "slow" FSB and not "native" quad core. AMD's 45nm should be able to surpass that almost 2 years too late. Intel's current slowest 45nm desktop quad core is now even faster (2.5GHz Q9300), and also has per clock performance improvements in the Yorkfield core tweak (anand found a 7.4% average increase). Even that Q9300 might be discontinued before Deneb ships in late Q4'08 or early Q1'09 in favor of a faster model leaving AMD's best in the same place it currently is: below Intel's slowest. And it looks like Nehalem will be out before Deneb too, with real performance improvements over Yorkfield due to triple channel ODMC, QPI and "native" quad core. Oops.
I think your wildly optimistic view will lead to some wild disappointment come 5-6 months. Is that you, Duby?
Heh, didn't stop Opteron buyers from using it to compare overclocks back in the day. Only reason Intel has such an advantage is because the benchmark can fit in the cache of most Core 2s.Wildly optimistic? Considering it's 12% faster in SuperPi WITHOUT FREQUENCY SCALING (they are both Phenoms), possibly the WORST AMD benchmark, you know they've improved the chip.
Fail.Oh, and happy waiting for your nonexistant mainstream Nehalem that will come 1 year, not 3 months after.
These are the only comparable scores I can find for each:Wildly optimistic? Considering it's 12% faster in SuperPi WITHOUT FREQUENCY SCALING (they are both Phenoms), possibly the WORST AMD benchmark, you know they've improved the chip.

zomg he's back!Nope and you can please stop slandering my good name.
I see your still getting paid well. Boy what I wouldnt do to be a paid shill. To even have the pleasure of having it advertised.. (pick your own..... you deserve it) Yeah, you really do deserve it....
zomg he's back!
It would possibly be libel, not "slander," since slander is used for a spoken and libel for written defamation. Believe me, I never mention you IRL. But pointing out how someone is unrealistically optimistic probably doesn't count as libel anyways. You may want to consult an attorney about that if it really concerns you.Nope and you can please stop slandering my good name.
I think it's probably more accurate to say you still troll around these forums than to say "I heard mention"
Whatever reputation you've got around here, you earned it.
