What I meant was: Intel finally realized that it has squeezed as much performance as it can out of FSB designs with its smart cache/prefetcher architecture and decided to tackle IMC engineering challenge, something AMD has had a couple of years head start on. Intel was never oblivious IMC as a...

My understanding is that Core architecture was always FSB starved, Intel realized this and built C/C2 architectures around large caches and efficient prefetchers to compensate for this FSB bottleneck. AMD on the other hand, equally realizing FSB as a major bottleneck to CPU performance, decided...

Hey all, I just built a moderately OC'd system around Q9450 and ASUS P5E WS Pro (X38 + DDR2) with 8Gig PC-6400 OCZ Gold Series RAM (5-5-5-18). All I want for OC is 400Mhz FSB, due to the fact that C2Qs are FSB starved according to most rearview. Well I bumped up the FSB to 400MHz, kept...

Hello, I need some help figuring out how to benchmark network performance in a medium size network (250 hosts, 3 servers). If anyone has any suggestions on benchmarking applications and/or methodologies in popular use for this task please advise. I know that motherboard built-in Gbit NICs are...
