Oh my, thanks for pointing that out!! :sneaky: AMD is of course reserving itself the rights to postpone the shipment to Q2 2012 (usual tech delays; from no functional demo on CeBit in March to shipment in June? no, no, no...) :D :D :D

your faith has serious problems; everything is still at rumor level. :D

June 20th - begins the shipments of AMD FX-series high-end desktop microprocessors AMD's Bulldozer: -4 eight-core AMD FX8000 -2 six-core AMD FX6000 -2 quad-core AMD FX4000

I would add: -motherboards having both SLI as Crossfire. I'm not going to buy a CPU that ties the customer to only one GPU brand; besides being this an unfair market practice (immagine intel supporting only Nvidia GPUs)

One thing is working, another is presenting a power demo PC rig on a new platform; new Bulldozer+new chipset. CeBit: One day AMD was saying that the new Bulldozer could run on current AM3 motherboards; the next day they already changed the story. The second version of the story (if we forget...

You keep telling us not to get to excited about the release date news. Reason? "Well, the customers would stop buying current offering if the Bullldozer proved to good." ??? Excuse me? The customers that want/need performance buy Intel (already). AMD is living from low budget system builds...

by the way; no Bulldozer at CeBit in Hannover! The chipset is not working as it should. hmm, how was that AMD slogan? ready,...

I assumed that the ones writing here know The Power of Google ():)

You know, you could make great career in politics as PR. You never give any information (this is understandable) and you go quite a long way to make a pudding out of leaks (to put doubts even in doubts). :D

I just wanted to direct the attention to the title of this thread: "Rumour: Bulldozer 50% Faster than Core i7 and Phenom II." and the last news release from AMD: ""The U.S.-based CPU and chip maker AMD will present at CeBIT 2011 processors, which performance exceeds the current top models...

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/02/24/amd_bulldozer_core_isscc/ this article is interesting because of pics showing different parts of the CPU and the functional interconnections between them.

At Pcper (pc perspective) they've made an assessment of Bulldozer from all the available data till now. It's clear however, that planned(supposed) and final performance can differ from wonder to under-performing once in the hands. (AMD and Intel both had their fair share of "wonders") It's...

:ninja: :D :D a vacation in Tunisia should do wonders ^_^ this thread could compete for Nobel prize for Greek philosophy

I can see we are reaching the moment before eruption of the volcano here; if AMD does not forward at least some data at Cebit....:twisted:

just to think, that one of the main marketing slogans, beside speed, was that SSDs practically never fail (as opposed to known HDD failures). to quote one of the biggest PC magazines: "a SSD has never failed on us". Anyway, the web is buzzing with OCZ failures of the new 25nm drives...
