Hi i have screen of My Memory Test ( AMD friendly ;-)
Cuz there is a lot of ( Intel Friendly Tests out there i have some proof)
amdmemtest1.jpg



As you can see i have 43 GB/s Physical Read in this test and about 15 GB/s Write (so AMD and Intel is Good but AMD is cheaper ;-)

Good job running a supposed ram test and setting the test parameter at the SRAM level.......

Guess you don't like the reality bias, where you imagination has no weight.

The blind leading the clueless here, literally...

Next time set the test at 16 kB, and say that that is the "real" level, because instruction cache is ram yo!

@ OP, please don't get huckstered by the AMD shills. Bulldozer/Piledriver are 100% worthless in games for the foreseeable future in overclocked performance, not to mention the very real present. I cannot stand people deliberately wasting other people's money.

Take your lies to somewhere where you aren't literally harming the OP's chance to get what he is looking for.

@Homeles, I'm not going to belabor your defense of Headfoot's remarks, but re my supposed strawman, I was addressing this:


That is not a provably true statement right now. Contrary to your initial post directed at me, Headfoot's assertions regarding an unreleased product were all constructed as statements of fact, which they obviously cannot be at this point.
Yeah, you're right.

The guy that thinks that gaming on anything less than a 2500K is "pointless" is talking trash? Lol.

This test is running on 6 MB not 6 kb lol This test is VALID !!!
:eek: Really my bro i have 3 computers in my house 2 is AMD and one Intel X79 x3970 in work !
And im overclockig myself and testing in a lot of programs !
But there's no difference in games i5 or Phenom II x6 or FX 8320 in 4GHz ! (when you overclock AMD remember to put min. 234 FSB and 2600 NB 2400 HT !!!!)
Some games are Intel friendly some are AMD and thats all :thumbsup:

Don't test Performance in Cinebench ! only Intel Optimization in there :-(

Caches are generally larger than 6MB. And aren't you using an AMD processor? AMD has cache sizes out the wazoo.

Imo FX 6300 if you want to stay under $300, otherwise 3570K if you are alright with ~$400.
