Lol.. One of the best responses to a post I have ever read on a message board.

Agreed. Having 8 "weak" cores kinda forces developers to load level the workload amongst as many cores as is reasonable. Can you imagine Skyrim trying to run on two or three of these cores? I think not. The game would choke as many would. This is actually great news for us PC gamers. x86...

Why would they do this? Baffling.. Someone surely must have misspoke.

Probably need to loosen your timings on your RAM to get it stable. Give that a shot.

I imagine it would mean much the same as it did when they allowed inter-racial marriage. To me this is not a big issue at all. In fact it's a non issue. Never minding the fact that I do believe gays should have the right to be married, even if I didn't, politically I don't care one iota what...

Meh.. Not impressed at all. Really wanting a x79 build but think I'll stick with SB and hope that maybe, just maybe they will release a 8 core part later on down the line.

Well, I am an insomniac. So win win right?

Borkil, many many thanks. I'm not gonna pretend to fully understand those diagrams but they and your explanation of them helps tremendously. I'm not an engineer so I'm never gonna have that degree of knowledge but as a hobbyist it's always nice to know more. It's always fascinated me how tech...

Thank you all for the lesson. Lots of good info here and I have a much better grasp on ISA's.

Really want one of these for a new HTPC build.

Ohhh... I get it... See I was thinking of the former and he the latter. He needs to remind me of the sin inherent in homosexual behavior cause I all to frequently forget that fact.

Obviously I did and obviously you do.

Different how exactly?

Yeah, the ignorance for me was actually thinking that the ISA's were actually more akin to an actual programming language than assembly code. Seeing things like AVX2 defined in that other thread was what had kinda led me to believe it was more the former than the later.
