A full set of usual benchmarks emerged for Interlagos and Zambezi on the following source:
http://news.mydrivers.com/1/160/160285.htm
They are showing quite good results and give a lot of additional information.
According to the source AMD Bulldozer will have
- up to 1.6 GHz of Turbo (0.6 GHz to 1.6 GHz)
- additional 4 KByte Trace Cache
Especially the latter trace cache is quite important in my opinion since it helps a lot the increase the throughput in loops. Sandy Bridge already shows what a trace cache can do to overcome decoder limitations.
With a Bulldozer being able to issue 12 instructions / cycle / module this is even more important as for Sandy Bridge which can issue 4 instructions / cycle / core.
Plenty of benchmarks and news, so let's discuss ...
April fools joke spoof from last year.
