"Intel to launch Ivy Bridge in March 2012"

[Nemesis 1]

Wasn't Ivy Bridge supposed to be mainstream parts first? I would be surprised if any of the initial IB CPUs are faster than the 2600K...

Going to be very interesting seeing how they overclock, though. If there are any K parts.

Everyone else would be disappointed if it weren't faster. Except the few the brave the proud the anointed ones.

What is after Ivy Bridge ? 2013 2014 ,,,, 8 and 12 core Ivy Bridge or after IB. ?

Haswell is the next microarchitecture after IB due in 2013. Then Broadwell will be the 14nm shrink of it.

Not sure if we'll see a 8+ core version of IVB or not, there are 8/10 core versions of Intel's high-end server lines (Nehalem EX, Westmere EX) so maybe we'll see those core counts migrate down to the desktop LGA2011 platform, who knows? Certainly seems like the 3-D transistor tech could provide the thermal headroom for such a beast.

You mind going and editing that post in the other topic.Man your fast at spreading a rumor that has no merit or source. The internet where sane men dare not tread.

I have NO idea what is going on and I'd appreciate some counselling. Somewhere along the line you've all lost me. Is there a guidebook on interpreting Anandtechese?

 

[Terzo]

You have to read between the lines.

Can you write a how-to for that? I'm under the impression that Nemesis 1 is a knowledgeable industry insider who maintains this persona so he can say things without saying them. Apparently, you can read his posts and understand what he's implying, but for me (and at least a few others) there's no making heads or tails of his posts.

Its a rumor I just started. NO source named.

Why do you do that? Why do you have such an axe to grind with AMD? That is the second untrue rumor that you have posted on this site.

 

[Nemesis 1]

OH! I calling for ban hammer. Ya good thing IDC was following that topic . It was in relationship to the orginal post that named no source and was talking about mobile.
Look John until you say publicly in this forum state that XOPprefix has bits encoded into it that can replace The rex prefix byte code with just a couples of bits . There is no false rumor . I asked you to show this in the AMD pdf you posted . But you ran away .

I also showed that statements you made were not stated in the whole context of the Intel PDF . LIKE FMA being affected . were you said it wasn't .

Than you jump in here on a post I made . that 1 member took seriously because that post flew over his head . Show XOPprefix has p-slices in its prefix as I have with intels vexprefix .

Oh and to you IDC I had problems this morning as we discussed yesterday . I now know .

The false rumor I started yesterday that you jumped on . and posted in another topic .
Don't believe rumors unless you can back them up . I couldn't believe you posted that elsewere. Now go fix it . Use what ever dialog you want but fix it . Check timeline as I did after I seen you carry that rumer forward

I gave IDC the code book for insiders pretending to be outsiders so he can follow my post . I also gave him the special decoder ring to speed up the process of decoding my messages . Its an amazing little compiler . Get real .

Your impression is very wrong.

I suggest you follow your own advice.

In this case he's being entirely satirical given that the basis for this thread is an unsubstantiated rumor itself.

He's merely showing how absurd it is to put any stock in unsubstantiated rumors, be they that Bulldozer is delayed till 2012 or that IB is "delayed" to march 2012.

Ok, so let me get this straight. You made a statement. You did not state in any way that it was restricted information (you did place it on a public forum after all). I restated your statement by prefacing with a "if this is true," and now I'M TO BLAME? What kind of upside down bizarro mirror world is this?

 

[Nemesis 1]

Yes I did I made a false statement in a topic that Intel has not Stated publicly . I also recieved an infraction for it . But I am now aware of another baiting plow. That I will avoid in the future.

When he made the rumor, it was in the context of "people are just putting out insane rumors for page hits, and it's ridiculous". To further drive home the point, he followed up with a single statement that is completely unsubstantiated - an illustration of just how easy it is to make up a rumor and how easy it can be picked up.

In essence, what you should do at this point is just learn the lesson that unless something comes with some sort of source, it is best to take it with a grain of salt and not help spread it or fan the flames.

Granted and accepted. That's the first and last time I'll be caught passing that kind of stuff on.

Very interesting, thx.

I wonder what the advantage of the 4C Sandy Bridge-E will be compared to the top of the line Ivy Bridge 4C.

My bet (no inside knowledge acknowledged or intended) is that 4C SB-E will be faster than the first H1 4C IB because the former is on the new and much more "enthusiast-oriented" LGA2011 platform while the latter is on the current "mainstream" LGA1155. But I await to be pleasantly surprised!

 

[gramboh]

What are the expected price points for SB-E? Obviously $999 for the 6C 15M, then $600-700 for the 6C 12M and what will the 4C be? I assume it has to be $400+ to be priced above the 2600k and it's Ivy Bridge replacement.

That jibes with the figures I've seen being tossed around, but who knows. I wouldn't be surprised if BD's final performance numbers will have something to do with the pricing structure. If BD is as strong as some people say (and I keep hoping it is) then I'd think those prices might be a bit on the high side, at least for the 4C. I'd be so happy if BD could go toe to toe with SB-E 4C but only the final benchmarks will tell! I have more than a little doubt in the back of my head about that.
