Don't really say much for their processors if they use their competitors platform to showcase the performance of their gpu offerings.
It has been this way for years now anyway.AMD might as well dump their desktop cpu business and sell relabeled intel. This is embarassing as hell.
what about a link to where you got that from? would like to see the results of said testing.
AMD can't really win on this whatever they do. They'd look pretty rediculous if they were using an AMD processor to showcase their GPU performance.
Pretty crazzy that AMD tells reviews sites to use an x79 setup with decent ram and timings huh lol
they could of easily said use a 2600k but they went nuts and asked for the cream of the crop x79 platform.
and that setup would make AMD cpus look really bad too.people seem to forget that they actually want to sell video cards
I don't see a huge issue with it. AMD makes PC graphics cards, and I am sure that means testing them in all sorts of configurations. To ignore a majority of the market, just because it is a different company, would be silly.

for who ? intel or amd ?

Humor me, why would this be embarrassing for Intel?
As it was noted above, the Intel CPU costs $1000 while AMD CPU costs only a paltry $250.
That is the only "win" for AMD in this comparison.
