AMD Aims to Fight Core i7

AMD Bulldozer details start to trickle out - VR-Zone.com

Die Intel . :p

--- Updated Post - Automerged ---

I think we should have a seperate Bulldozer thread. It doesn't make sense to mingle bulldozer threads with Fusion ones, both are entirely different archtectures and need to be discussed seperately..:)

First AMD Llano benchmarks online Google Translate #fb



The user showed a whole lots of pics of the BIOS interface of the motherboard which features adjustable multiplier, FSB, voltage and even a Performance Boost multiplier. The motherboard can also adjust the Graphics core clock of the embedded Radeon “6550D” chip on the CPU. The A8-3800 chip features a stock core clock of 2.4Ghz which can turbo to 2.7Ghz however the user did mention that a certain glitch made CPU-z show a different clock speeds of 5.4Ghz. But it is confirmed by AMD that the 2.4Ghz (2.7Ghz T.C) are the official speeds at 0.992V with 1MBx4 L2 cache (No L3 Cache). The user also overclocked the chip to 3Ghz on a Vcore of 1.2V and did a little comparison on stock and overclocked speeds.

The Radeon “6550D” chip was maintained at a core clock of 440mhz and 800mhz for the memory, The chip was also overclocked during the later benchmarks to show the comparison. You can check out the benchmark scores and pictures below:

3Dmark Vantage: 4019 (stock) / 4366 (3Ghz)

3Dmark 11 Extreme Preset: E1764 (Stock) / E1950 (3Ghz)

Gaming Benchmarks: (Stock)(1920x1080P)

Street Fighter 4: 50.32 FPS

Hawx: 54FPS (DX9) / 22FPS (DX10)

Hawx 2: 46FPS (DX9) / 34FPS (DX11)

Resident Evil 5: 29.0 (DX9) / 27.4 (DX10)


Looking at the benchmarks we can determine that the Llano APU’s may not feature a faster processor but the embedded radeon chips make them ideal for mainstream 1080P gaming. In all of the games the chip managed to score an AVG fps over 30 on highest resolution. It would have been better if the user posted some comparisons with Intel’s Mainstream Core i3 lineup.

However, I was expecting a bit more gain after the overclocking. The Llano APU’s will arrive in Q3 2011 and would be compatible with the Socket FM1 motherboards. You can check out pictures below along with more details on Llano Processors:

EDIT: It OVERCLOCKS TO 5.4GHZ

And at last, it's almost here. 14th is allegedly the release date, just round the corner. Lets see, what we have so far:

even stock frequencies also make you surprised. its an iGPU,,,,,nono, its a APU

the performance is almost 10x faster than 880G or 780G welcome to socket FM1

Stock Frequency settings.

3Dmark 11 P1148

3Dmark Vantage P4400

3Dmark 2006 7650

APU rocks now!!

Re: AMD Llano Discussion Thread

Will Llano be OK for mid level gaming rigs? How will it compare to Phenom X2 955BE in the gaming department?

See, if you don't add a GPU, Llano alone is a good gaming APU according to me, it was playing at 1920x1080, I think gaming for laptop resolutions and 1366x768 and such should be amazing.

As for adding a GPU, if you add a HD6670 and have Hybrid CFx, even then I see gaming being a pleasant experience. But Of course, in brute gaming, X4 955 will bebetter(lower resolution and very high end cards where the APU CPU will bottleneck)
 
Re: AMD Llano Discussion Thread

When is the Llano coming to desktops in India ? What's the minimum expected cost of a basic llano motherboard+CPU setup ?
 
Re: AMD Llano Discussion Thread

Well, the top of the line CHIP is pricced at 170$ according to leaks. I'm guessing they still overclock using FSB, so if you buy the cheapest full GPU unlocked quad, maybe for 130$ or 150$, and grab a mobo with it(the mobo isn't included is it? :p) for under 100$, that puts 250$ expected price average.
