No one is buying AMD Garbage. AMD has no choice but to hold a Garage sale.
They keep lowering prices but no one wants dead end of the road technology.
AMD is done, even if they price the chips at $20, no one would want them.
Remember, when something becomes obsolete, it holds 0 value....soon, AMD will have to destroy all the chips because they can't sell them and they can't even give them away.
Also, I like how you started a new blog entry to avoid the last one where you Compared 16 barcelona cores with 8 Xeon Prescot 1 year old cores LOL
YOu have dropped to ultimate low levels. Just when I thought you couldn't get any lower, you prove us all wrong.
Sharidouche, you are still wrong win your specINT comparing in the previous entry..... Get it right.
You are comparing a 4 core 2 chip system to a Intel 2 core 4 chip 2 year old Prescott.... LOL LOL LOL LOL
you can't even fix your own mistakes LOL.
Sharikou,
The pace at which you are posting leads many of us to believe that you are attempting to gloss over the K8 reality as delivered by the by the just outed SPEC 2006 int and SPEC 2006 fp numbers.
Reminds me of this
Buy your AMD garbage at kmart with your underwear. Atleast the graphics on your underwear package will not misrepresent the numbers like AMD does with their powerpoints.

13ringinheat,
You meant Wal-Mart*, right?
Kmart* just seems way out of this guy's league.
*no offense to either Kmart or Wal-Mart or their employees and families intended.
Wait, wait, wasn't the AMD crew just claiming that Intel lowering prices was a very bad thing?
Now its cool?
Holy FUCK, what a bunch of retards fucking doorknobs.
The 2.8GHZ Athlon X2 5600+ costs only $146 -- it's pretty much identical to FX62.
It's still slow as crap compared to a C2D.

AMD & Others Form SOI Consortium
Matthew Cameron on Monday, October 08, 2007 - 01:13 PM
AMD Advanced Micro Devices has long been an advocate of Silicon on Insulator technology. AMD has been using this manufacturing strategy since 2001.
According to EE Times, AMD, along with TSMC, UMC, IBM, Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing and others, have formed the SOI Industry Consortium.
One of the goals of this consortium is the need to reduce power consumption.
In the past, Intel(copytel) has claimed that SOI is too expensive.
AMD spends the extra money for SOI to bring all its customers the best product possible.
IF your not running SOI technology your just not state of the art.
BUY AMD hi performance, energy saving, low cost, state of the art, cpus, platforms, and video solutions.
hahaha is that why Intel is kicking AMD's Ass using the Bulk process....while AMD is stuck at 2Ghz and possibly, wait, probably will have problems with SOI in near future.
LOL
IF your not running SOI technology your just not state of the art.
Then why would AMD be considering moving away from SOI? http://www.semiconductor.net/article/CA6464480.html
The high-k metal gate transistor is real state of the art technology.
AMD TRIPLE CRIPPLE TALIBAN DETAILS:
http://www.vr-zone.com/articles/AMD_Triple-Core_Is_Phenom_7-Series/5327.html
AMD plans to launch the new Triple-Core processor family by Q1 next year and it will be called Phenom 7-series instead. The codename for the Triple-core processors is Toliman, a 65nm quad-core Agena core based with one core disabled. VR-Zone has learned that there will be 2 models at launch; Phenom 7700 and 7600 clocked at 2.5GHz and 2.3GHz respectively. Both processors will be AM2+ based, 3 x 512LB of L2 cache, 2MB of shared L3 cache and has TDP of 89W. We can expect DVT samples to be available by January, production by February and launch by March 2008
2.5Ghz Tri Core? That's pathetic. BaronMatrix previously predicted a speed of 3.4Ghz for Tri core CPU.
Apparently 2.5Ghz is the 'higher frequency' that comes from a tri core over a quad core CPU. We now know that AMD will not exceed 2.5Ghz quad core for desktops.
Forget this upcoming junk. If someone wants a good multicore CPU go grab a Q6600 for $277.99 and be done with it.
Once again, oneexpert only can cut and paste and doesn't realize that AMD is moving away from SOI.
But then again, since the intelligence level that oneexpert manages with is only able to keep his heart beating and his lungs breathing, we really shouldn't expect much.
Remember oneexpert, sleeping with your mom is bad... and sleeping with your dad is even worse.
Go do some research on high-k metal gate transistors you ignorant fuck.
Its kinda funny when fanboi's don't even realize what they are saying...
AMD CRUSHING intel(copytel) AGAIN...
AMD adjusts Athlon prices
By Tony Smith
9th October 2007 09:24 GMT
AMD has juggled the prices of its desktop processors, knocking up to 27.5 per cent of various CPUs, introducing some new, low-power ones, and upping what it charges for a number of other parts.
Among the processors that are now cheaper than before are members of the dual-core Athlon 64 X2 line and the single-core Athlon 64 series. Dual-core prices fell by between 6.2 per cent and 12.4 per cent, while the single-core cuts ranged from 22.4 per cent to 27.5 per cent.
New to AMD's X2 price list are the 'Black Edition' 6400+ and 5000+, the latter a new, $136 part while the former replaced the existing vanilla 6400+. The 4000+ was dropped from the list. So too was the Athlon 64 3200+, but its fellows were joined by the new 2.2GHz LE-1600 and the 2.4GHz LE-1620. Both are 45W parts priced at $47 and $53, respectively.
The 45W Energy Efficient Athlon X2 series gained a new member, the 2.3GHz BE-2400, while the existing members - the 2.1GHz BE-2350 and the 1.9GHz BE-2300 - now cost around six per cent more than before.
And there's a new mobile-oriented Athlon X2: the 1.8GHz TK-55. It's priced at $144, the same as the existing 1.7GHz TK-53.
The former top-of-the-range desktop Sempron, the 2GHz LE-1150, now sits under the 2.2GHz LE-1250 and the 2.1GHz LE-1200, priced at $53 and $48, respectively. The LE-1150's price went up, from $37 to $42, its former price point being taken up by the new 1.9GHz LE-1100.
The new low wattage cpus along with the cpu price cuts have caused intel(copytel) stock to plummet like a rock.
It wont be long before intel(copytel) tanks.
Nobody wants or needs obsolete power sucking glued up pentium 3s on a relic antique FSB.
Dont wait for the nehalem knock off, buy the original and still the best AMD BARCELONA.
BUY AMD state of the art, power saving, low cost, best performance, most often copied, cpus, platforms, and video solutions.
The new low wattage cpus along with the cpu price cuts have caused intel(copytel) stock to plummet like a rock.
It wont be long before intel(copytel) tanks.
Intel's stock is holding steady at $25.67.
Oh, and how is Intel about to 'tank' when they are earning a ton of profit?

"AMD CRUSHING intel(copytel) AGAIN..."

"Let's try it another way. This pricing scheme has erected a HUGE BARRIER TO ENTRY for QUAD CORE CHIPS."
ROFL ROFL ROFL
You know what's a huge barrier to entry? Insisting the quad core must be monolithic, there's your barrier to entry.
Hmmm...garage sale pricing - all AMD high end CPU's for less than $150...all AMD highend CPU's beat by Intel's midrange parts, some of them beat by Intel's low end parts...this sounds exactly like sharidink's prediction for Intel - only it's happening to AMD.
When AMD files chapter 11 soon, please don't kill yourself sharipoop, we'll need you around to laugh at some more....
Sharikou, did you read the article you linked to?
It basically owns AMD. Rattner make a lot of excellent points about why Intel is better and smarter than AMD. For example, Intel has had a desktop quad-core for nearly a year now, and AMD doesn't.
Mo,
You have issues. AMD still has 20% of the World Market. Give it a rest.
If you look at the SPEC page you will see that the SPECInt scores are with 2360SE a 2P CPU so it can't have been 16 cores.
Your hatred will consume you.
Intel CTO is proud of double cheeseburger design -- packing two double cores on FSB and you get a Naive Quad core.
In the same article, Intel's CTO commented on AMD's triple-cores as being a 'yield- improvement' technique
So you mean it could be like the Dual Core for Dummies handbook AMD gave out?
Did you expect Intel to say, "Yeah great idea, I wish we could do it?"
There's a difference in having a preferred CPU supplier and being a RABID FANBOI.
Looking at the name-calling you all do, I'd say you're rabid fanbois.
And in case you don't understand, I defend AMD not Sharikou.
2.5Ghz Tri Core? That's pathetic. BaronMatrix previously predicted a speed of 3.4Ghz for Tri core CPU.
As usual, you wouldn't know context if it kicked you in the eye. I said it should clock that high, NOT the first one would be that speed.
Sounds like FUD-based disinformation to me.
What do you think?
You know what's a huge barrier to entry? Insisting the quad core must be monolithic, there's your barrier to entry.
Wow, what a dick. No snappy name-calling comeback this time, huhn? Good. Cuddle up next to your Otellini doll and try not to get it too sticky.
Now that's what you all sound like.
And you sound like you always do when people start calling you on the bullshit you spew...a whiny little bitch..
I'm with Pizza. Howell is a little bitch.
Waaa! You guys are making fun of AMD!
WAAAAAA!
And you sound like you always do when people start calling you on the bullshit you spew...a whiny little bitch..
And I say I can give you my address, you can come by and get stomped out by a bitch while he makes bad jokes about your odoriferousness.
I think you let your jealousy of Sharikou cloud your judgment. That's not the way of enlightenment but the path to under-achievement.
Embrace Peace you dumb shit.
Howell is an e-thug!!!
Yo! BoOOYYYYZZZZ!
Why the holy fuck would anyone with on ounce of intelligence be jealous of Sharidouce?
1.) He is a liar
2.) He is unemployed
3.) He is followed by a small number of completely stupid morons that think he is the reborn
Christ.
4.) Anyone remotely serious about the semiconductor market things he is a total and utter moron.
Yeah I can see people being real jealous of that!
Sign me up for some of that goodness.
Howell you are a fucking moron.
And I'd watch wipping out your E-Penis around here, oneexpert, only amd and a few others may just want a touch of your angry inch.

"If you look at the SPEC page you will see that the SPECInt scores are with 2360SE a 2P CPU so it can't have been 16 cores."
Nice going for AMD, they finally got from Powerpoint to real world. Though they are still short of 100MHz from their "estimated performance" they saw months ago. Anyone has made a comparison against those?
I remember many people claiming they estimated the performance by simply doubling dualcore K8 performance since that was the only thing they could use to protect AMD ">40% more performance in wide variety of workloads compared to Intel". Seems to me that that they didn't use K8 to estimate it afterall. Though it makes one wonder what they did use for the estimation.
Under-achievement? Who was it that said he makes high 5 figures? I made high 5 figures 10 years ago - take your pathetic salary, double it, and you might come close to mine...
Jealousy of a lying stack of shit who is as clueless as you are? Please - again, I come here to heckle little peices of crap like you and your anal buddy sharishit...it brings humor to my day, a day in which I earn more money than you and shariwhore combined, and a day in which I have the luxury of being able to visit here and have my spot of fun...
And you really should look at yourself when you utter the words "embrace peace" as you threaten violence and make a feeble attempt to frighten someone who is mentally, morally, financially, and I'd bet physically superior to you in every way. You don't frighten me, you useless piece of dogshit, you make me laugh.
Oh and please, provide your address, post it right here for everyone to see, thus proving just how fucking stupid you really are...

I have posted my address before. I think you're confusing that with your Social Security number, dumbass.
meh - I don't really care - like I said I do this to have fun with silly little punks like baronfuckstick. The only reason I even mentioned salary is 'cause the king o' retards mentioned his once, then called me an under achiever...I could care less what anyone makes as compared to me, my salary is only pertinent to one person, me, and how it fits my lifestyle and how comfortable it makes my family, if someone makes more, more power to ya, if someone makes less, well we all do what we can to get by...
No one on this board, not even Baron, is on Sharikook's level, no matter how much I joke, kid, insult....Sharidouche can't get any lower, he's like the moist spot underneith the pile of shit.... ;-)

I don't come on here callng people names because they aren't participating in a weird CPU-Love-In.
For a person so proud of his salary, you should be proud of your job too.
It's easy to say I make more than you. What do you do? My problem is I don't kiss ass. I should be at 100K but because of under-achievers giving BJs and HJs, people like me actually have to work.
Also, you couldn't be more superior to my farts. I don't tell people what I do until they say, and I quote,
"He's unemployed." I think there was at least one of those posts in this thread.
I guess you're jealous cause you can't dress. But Halloween's coming up so you can whip out your cheerleader outfit again.
But don't forget to shave.
Awww - where have I heard the "I've posted this or that" line of bullshit before. Put it right here, or you have no nuts, well, no nuts except the ones that bang against your chin every night behind your dance clubs....
Yep, go on and live in your fantasy world. If you were worth a damn at all at development, you'd be well over 100K by now. You're not, face reality, quit blaming your inadequacies on those around you and look at yourself for the real reason you suck.
You've been fun to poke at Baron, I salute you for your attempts, feeble tho they are, at witty comebacks. At least you have the guts to try, where as the host of this blog has no spine what so ever....
...oh, and I wouldn't make remarks towards peoples ability to dress, when you post a picture of what looks like you wearing a silver condom as clothing...
Hey Mr. Ex-Microsoft employee.
In the original article before Sharidouche edited it, he was comparing a 16Core barcelona to an 8 core Prescott Xeon....
he thought he fixed it but now he is comparing an 8 core 2 chip system to an 8 core 4 chip Prescott system lol.
You sure you worked at Microsoft?
They must have needed a retard to satisfy the Equal Opportunity.
Howell is just a little douche who couldn't hack it working at Microsoft.
your e-thuggery makes you no better than Sharidouche, and if you wanna be thought of in the same general area as him, then you are indeed a dick with no life, and no job.
You keep wagging your e-penis around, eventually you are going to lose it.
That's funny. When Fudrix doesn't have a logical comeback he resorts to insulting me.
So Fudrix, once again, explain how Intel stopped AMD from getting into the quadcore market? Or did AMD do it to themselves?
Fudrix works for New York City. Email his boss, Paul Cosgrave, and let him know what you think about this guy wasting taxpayer dollars as he promotes AMD at work:

You can't poke fun at me. All you're doing is proving that Intel users are not as smart as AMD users as a survey showed earlier this year.
I didn't go to college for development. I picked it up after I decided to go with Microsoft.
My first job there was USB\Firewire and DVD testing. In one year I managed to get an above entry-level developer position.
Pretty damn good, I'd say. And I see you're still embarrassed to say what you do.

It may do you some help.
Are you that impacted in life by the fact that Intel processors simply out perform those from AMD that you need to support retards like Sharidouche and oneexpert?

Nah douche jr. This is the internet, the only thing more funny than people with e-penis envy are the people that support them.
With a name like only amd, you've already lost out on the intelligent conversation side of the coin, as it's quite clear by your name, and the fact you are supporting total and utter prats like oneexpert and sharidouche, that you are simply unable to speak with any type of authority, let alone intelligence on anything related in the least bit to AMD and/or Intel.
Have a nice time trying to find a life. Mine may not be perfect (who's is) but I sure enjoy it.
Seeing total assclowns like yourself supporting people like Sharidouche only make me more happy in the choices I made in life such as not sleeping with my mother, leaving the house at 19, getting a college education, having a decent job and of course being married to a wonderful Wife.
Now I know its hard for you to understand, as you will never have any of these things due to either the plate in your head or the undecended testicles, but fear not, you too can have a mostly complete life cleaning tables at McDonalds or mopping the floors at Home Depot. The world does need some morons.

As to your assumption that surfing the 'net is legal as long as it doesn't impact your job, maybe if the company doesn't have a defined Internet usage policy, which this company probably did not. Most city governments have very strict usage policies, and if you break that policy, you *can* be terminated. Since NY is an "at-will" employment state, if you violate a company's 'net use policy, you can be terminated, without a cause for recourse. My guess is, in the case you keep citing, the company did not have a clearly defined policy, so he was able to win the case. I'm not going to look it up, I have better things to do. Litigation like that is what clogs up our court systems, and the guy is douche regardless, so he deserved to get canned.
And I agree with above - with writing skills like that, I think both Broadway and Hollywood are safe for a good long time.

SDEs get calls at 3AM in Windows. I didn't want that. They have to wear pagers all the time in case they break the build. Not for me.
I have created products for the web. That's still developing.
I also did an automation harness that employed an XML-based scripting language I created.
That's developing too.
And as usual you throw in a low blow. I can do that too.
Then I guess your food-service working pathetic ass really doesn't mean anything.
SDETs now are not what they were. Most of the qualified testers were given SDET status. I was glad to leave the warm-bodies and good-ole-boy network. Wouldn't go back. Not even if it stopped raining all year.
And of course, you have to trow in a barb about being fired. Verminous at best, primordial at worst.
Just leave people's employment out of it and you won't have to worry about what I say about my job, former and current.
Ha ha ha ha. With witty repartee like this, its no wonder that Chris is a failed screenwriter. Could you imagine Hollywood paying for this?!?!?

By the way, aren't you feeling a bit disappointed like Charlie on these latest alleged AMD roadmap developments?

Dude stop proving how you got your username. No one is offered a job they don't apply for.
When you're not qualified for a job, it's usually best not to apply for it, so in that case I can understand why you *didn't* apply for it, congratulations on showing a momentary sense of judgement.
Given that you don't know me, what I do, or what my career is, then you can have no clue as to if I'm proud of what I do or not. As it is I am very proud of what I do, I do it on my own schedule, and make a very nice wage doing it, substantially more than you do, from what you've alluded to regarding your salary.
Assume what you want, regarding my career, I honestly don't give a rat fuck...When you're at the point in your career where you don't have to make client calls, client's call on you based on your reputation, come talk to me, until then, think whatever you want.
And again, as I have repeatedly stated, I hope AMD's new stuff is competetive - it better be - however given their track record as of the last 18 months, I take the wait and see attitude. Intel is delivering, AMD is not, you can't deny it, if you do you're just a blind fanboi like the rest of these asshats that hang on sharisluts jock.
Dude, stop the e-penis arguments.
Who cares what we do? It's what you know that matters.
Baron and Sharikou bring a lot of interesting facts to the table but then make the wrong conclusions. We then use their own facts to prove them wrong. - That's how this thing is supposed to work.
No more e-penis. E-penis = BAD

If you are REALLY GOOD and known by what you do, people will notice and often times recruit you along.
Not all jobs are advertized. Best jobs are gotten via word of mouth referrals or because of one's position in the industry.
Keep going...let's see how far we can take this chit-chat. :)

Dude stop proving how you got your username. No one is offered a job they don't apply for.
...but somehow I was offered an ASUS internship job, which I didn't apply for...
I wonder why...
BM, so you come here after getting owned in THGF?
You're getting lower than I thought...
Actually Scott, if you research half of what Baron says, and all of what Sharishit says, you'll find more fiction than fact. Shariplop is downright delusional.
Lies are not interesting facts... the two are very different.

delivering? What the hell does that mean? If it means have the faster chip then Intel should have already gone out of business as AMD was leading for 3 years.
I don't even like Sharikou because he started this BK talk, but I like you even less so since you and your "buddies" or maybe "butties" like to attack people about something other than CPUs,
HAVE AT THEE VERMIN!!!
I really don't care if you have a job or not, but if you're going to accuse someone of
1. Being a janitor
2. Having no job
3. Being fired from a job
you have to deal with the repercussions of such.
AMD should take their time. The Phenom is set to debut in November or one month after the original date.
Just like it took nVidia MONTHS to get stable DX10 drivers, it took ATi awhile but since they'r owned by AMD they're the anti-christ right?
Just like Intel's 65nm process started with space-heaters, AMD can take some months to get K10 shaped up.
Just like Intel had to respin C2D last year, AMD had to respin K10. It wouldn't have been noticed had they had more Fabs.
Oh, BTW
ALL HAIL THE DUOPOLY!!!
Bitches!!

You mean maintaining this site as a job?
No, ATI became the bottom feeders when they released the utterly shitty 2900 series of cards, that the fanbois on this very blog were calling the next coming of Christ.
Then of course they totally forgot that:
1.) Nvidia's cards, both the middle of the line, and top of the line beat the 2900XT silly in almost every category, and in most cases by a HUGE margin.
2.) The ATI/AMD card sucks down power like a 2 dollar whore. Now mind you these are the same people harping on the fact that an Intel Processor uses 10 more watts than the AMD processor when idle and much less power when under any type of load.
3.) The AMD fanbois seem to realize that Intel is NOT sitting still in the CPU market. the C2D, like it or not, is still superior to AMD's K10 line up, now and for the foreseeable future. Its going to get MUCH worse for AMD when Intel releases its upcoming processor lineup starting in November.
4.) the AMD fanbois seem to realize that Intel can easily support a pricing war, AMD cannot. AMD fanbois de-ride Intel for lowering prices yet cheer when AMD does the same thing.
5.) Sharidouche lies about his PhD, makes up phony news about Intel, or rather takes AMD news, cuts and pastes any real information into the trash to try his best to mark the article/review to look pro-AMD and negative-Intel.
Quite frankly if you claim to be so fucking intelligent, one wonders how/why this needed to be pointed out to you...

CPU market undervalued? Are you kidding me? You fucktard really think everyone should shell out 1200USD for an E6700, just because you think that's fair to AMD?
People who supposedly hate him post her more than anyone else. I bet you guys just wet your pants when you get the first post.
...and you'll too when you heard that Phenom will not release above 2.6Ghz this year.
You really should lay off the crack, because I don't think your brain can take it given how little number of functioning brain cells there are.
Lol - I post here because abusing little self-absorbed punks such as yourself is fun and amuses me. I take this blog about as seriously as I take you, fuckwit, which means not at all. You post your garbage and lame comebacks here because you've either been told to leave everywhere else or have been warned against your typical Baronnumbshit behavior elsewhere...
As to what I meant by "delivering" it means exactly what I said...Intel (and Nvidia for that matter) is delivering products on time, that live up to expectations, and available when stated at the stated speeds. AMD is under-delivering against what it promised in both the CPU and the graphics arena's, if you don't see this then like I said, you're nothing more than a blind fanboi, but I think in your case I can end that sentence at the word "nothing".
I like how most of the people who comment on this blog are intel fanbois. Is that all you use your Core 2 Duo, Quad, and Extreme power to do? Read and comment on this blog? LMAO. It seems that my 5 y.o. processor is way more productive

I don't think Baron could have owned a PC before 2003. He seems to think the huge prices AMD dictated from this period till early 2006 were acceptable.
Even out of date bartons cost a bundle ($200) back in 2004. Basically all we had here that was cheap was celerons and semperons. Anything else was out of bounds.
jmk - actually I post what I do post from a dual-opteron workstation in the office (that's in dire need of upgrading, but I keep my businees machines on a strict upgrade cycle, next one being in January), mostly when I feel like taking a break from the daily routine and need a laugh which this blog so readily provides...when I'm at home it's usually from a Sempron based laptop that I use for web surfing and email because that's really all the juice that's needed for taht task....
My gaming/video editing rig is an Intel quad, with nvidia graphics...my studio PC is a C2D...my server farm is a mix of AMD and Intel, as I move towards virtualization in my environment, I'll more than likely move towards AMD for the backend server as their virtualization technology is more mature than Intels. But that will depend on cost and performance - I have money to go either way, but it doesn't mean I toss it away blindly based on one companies supposed "moral" superiority...
I may criticize AMD for their inability to deliver and execute as of late, but don't let that fool you into thinking I fall into the much vaunted "fanboy" catagory. I use, buy, recommend, install from both, depending on where the perf/value lies and what my customers may perceive their needs are...

Unfortunately pizza, thats not the way the fanboi's think. My datacenter is a mix of AMD and Intel, and while currently I'm buying only Intel due to its performance increase, cost savings and availablity, doesn't mean I hate AMD, or love Intel.
It simply means I use what works the best. Right now thats Intel. Two years ago it was AMD.
But that makes me an AMD hater cause I'm doing what is right for the company according to the fanbois.
I think the AMD fanboi love for AMD is much like the Apple RDF.
You are a intel fanboi evil for not buying into the native quad core BS AMD spews and not waiting for more than a year to upgrade to a blazing fast 2.0ghz CPU!!!
Baron Matrix must be the only person that doesn't like low CPU prices!
They can continue this price war for the next five years. That'll be just fine with me! Last year in late July/early august I paid a little over $300 for an E6600. Now you can get a quad for the same $300 and have change. Price wars ftw. :)
Baron Matrix must be the only person that doesn't like low CPU prices!
Yes he likes paying premium for garbage like his enthusiasm for quad fx which he wanted to buy but apparently was too broke to afford.
Or maybe he got some sense at the last second and realized what a piece of shit it really was kinda like the current state of barcelona and its blazing speed of 2ghz.
Or maybe he actually bought it and stored those CPUs in a Styrofoam box like he was advising people in the forumz to do. Awww man people laughed at him about that for days...

I actually took some of the material I was talking about and stuck a CPU in it. Shook it around. Tried to build up static charge and it didn't work.
It just wasn't styrofoam. But leave it to you to bring up something that got explained a year ago.

Agreed. Quad FX was the supreme joke of 2006. AMD haven't talked it up now for months, indicating that they have acknowledged its failure in the marketplace and will not be positioning it any longer as the top end enthusiast solution.
It was touted as the ultimate gaming platform. Yet months before its launch, anyone with a shred of common sense and logic not swayed by Henri's marketing hype easily understood that it would be an utter flop. A dual socket server board bastardized to work with four graphics cards sounds cool, until you realize that:
- The brains of the whole deal are obsolete K8 processors.
- You would need a massive power supply, at least 800 W, and cooling requirements. This was obvious way before the launch.
- No gamer in their right mind would buy four graphics cards when the next nVidia or ATI product cycle would allow you to typically buy two cards that outperform the original four, for far less cost and power consumption.
I sincerely pity those who bought into the hype. It's not their fault, it's AMD's for knowingly misleading them, just like they did with R600 ("We don't do paper launches") and K10 ("40% faster than Clovertown across a wide variety of workloads"). Quad FX was purely a desperation move.
Similarly, these people are in for a rude awakening when Phenom launches and can't even match Kentsfield in IPC, let alone Yorkfield. Again, they simply chose to ignore the obvious, that Barcelona = Phenom, and the benchmarks are already out. Stepping changes will not significantly improve performance, never have.

CPU prices affect more than just AMD and Intel. I like having a CPU that I can afford that does what I want.
I don't want a massive drop-off because I feel better knowing there are CPUs out of my desired price range.
It's kind of like Cadillac dropping the price of the CTS to Hyundai levels. It would be great for some but not the auto industry as a whole.

Actually, when the board got a BIOS fix the idle power fell tremendously and it was not touted as the Ultimate Gamer's platform but the ultimate multitasking platform.
You couldn't see it until you starting encoding while playing a game or running two instances of WoW while having a virus scan going.
The only real issue was having one board. Since 790FX will support QFX, I guess we may see some 8core Phenom boards soon enough.
Looks like an AMD optimized game, running on AMD's videos card's runs worse than when it runs on NVidia.
whoops... so sad AMD. More proof if you want performance, you should avoid the AMD video stuff...
http://www.theinquirer.net/gb/inquirer/news/2007/10/11/hl2-goes-under-frame-scope
As you might expect, the GeForce 8800 GTS and the Radeon HD 2900 XT duke it out for the high-end title, but when it comes to high resolutions and detail settings, the Radeon seems to spend most its time below the framerate even of the 320MB GTS variant, which is a rather poor show.
Obviously there's no competition for Nvidia at the high-end, and speeds are significantly higher, with average framerates in the low-hundreds.
"It's kind of like Cadillac dropping the price of the CTS to Hyundai levels. It would be great for some but not the auto industry as a whole."
Since when is competition not good for industry? It is survival of the fittest. You must adapt or make room for the ones who are better than you.
"Actually, when the board got a BIOS fix the idle power fell tremendously and it was not touted as the Ultimate Gamer's platform but the ultimate multitasking platform."
I can sit idle with my old Pentium 1 too thank you very much.

Well, if you're so fucking stupid as to not be able to figure out the obvious I don't know what to tell you...
The EU accused Intel(copytel) in July of using bribes, rebates, and pricing wars to drive AMD from the market. Fines from the charges could potentially run as high as $3.2 billion, and the Commission recently upheld a $613 million fine against Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) for anticompetitive moves.
Of course, Intel has not even been found guilty of anything yet. Even if Intel was fined, the fine would not be anywhere near $3.2bn. Microsoft could have been fined some $4bn (The maximum the EU fines is 10% of annual revenue).
As I recall, AMD is being used by SGI, Opti Inc and Microunity for patent violation.
used? Sued. It also seems that the EU just likes going after successful American companies like Intel, Apple, Microsoft and others.

No we just can't believe you're that fucking stupid.
Tick(Yonah), Tock(Merom), Tick(Penrym), Tock( Nehalem) Time has running out as AMD goes BK.
AMD like clock work marches closer and closer to BK. here they are losing money, and what do they do? Drop the price so they can lose even more money. Why aren't they rasing prices to try and make money? Because their product portfolio sucks and can't command a price that they can make any profit. But what about Barcelona? Yes Barcelona, slow, big, low yielding and selling for what a few hundred bucks. Remember AMD barely made a profit when they were selling Opetron and raping AMD fanbois with 1000 dollar CPUs. Barcelona is soo bad they can't even sell that crap for more then a few hunrded bucks. Whats worst is yield is so low they are getting fewer die and lower revenue per every 65nm then selling Opetrons for 50 bucks.
AMD going BK, Tick Tock Tick Tock.. bye bye Hector. You can bid to cut my lawn but with references like ATI purchase, Barcelona execution I might not even trust you near my lawn.
INTEL will be annoucing billion dollar profits next week and AMD will follow with multi-hundred million dollar loss. That is what you get for having i idiots running a company producing inferior products, using inferior technology and getting lower yields at higher cost.

While he noted that AMD was "likely less positioned than Intel in addressing a relatively stronger notebook market in [the third quarter]," he said the company got a boost from strong demand for low-end notebooks and its new partnership with Toshiba.
Doug Freedman of American Technology Research said in a research note this week that "AMD's existing product portfolio was uncompetitive in most segments of the market."
But he also said AMD management is "beginning to open its ears up to critics that are pushing the company to become more active consider strategic alternatives."
There has been considerable skepticism about AMD's prospects against Intel in the coming quarters as Richard Schafer of CIBC World Markets said in a note in July.
While its new partnerships with Dell and Toshiba "will likely be a tailwind for AMD over the next few quarters," he wrote, "AMD remains backed into a corner."
Yo Hector you can bid on mowing my lawn or cleaning my swimming pool. But you must keep a better schedule then what you did with Barcelona. Also you must use the latest and greatest technology and not push mower or a bucket

Nah, we don't have to deal with you, 10-Watt....heckling, belittling, making fun of, calling you on your bullshit isn't dealing with you...it's more showing you what a pathetic piece of shit, self-centered, misinformed, halfwitted, nutsucking loser you really are...I've fired people smarter than you for being stupid...
So BaronMatrix is on the TomsHardware forum, complaining about low CPU prices. Dear god, the prospect of building a PC with these cheap CPUs and saving a few hundred $$$ is just AWFUL isn't it?!
In BaronMatrix's ideal world my Q6600 would have cost $1500!
Howell is a fucking tool.
Enough said.
He hasn't shut up about it in months...he doesn't seem to get that he's the only one who thinks lower prices are bad...of course he also says intel is guilty of predatory pricing - nevermind that they're NOT selling procs at a loss...
But then, explaining things to him is like trying to explain physics to a retarded child....

It's been 4 days - Sharifag needs to get a new "article" going so we can knock that one to the ground and kick it around now...this one is getting dull...
it will probably something lifted from AMD's press release site knowning Sharidouche.
or maybe some commentary on how intel is evil...
Or the people that use Intel processors are stupid.
Or how he believes Intel will be BK in 2008, I mean 2009... which will, knowing that fucking liar, soon be 2010 because he can't keep stuff like dates correct, especially when Intel is doing so well...

Intel BEGGING FOR More Time To Respond To EU Antitrust Claims, Charges & FINES
Tuesday October 09, 2007 07:21:38 EDT
October 9, 2007 (FinancialWire) Chip maker Intel(copytel) (NASDAQ: INTC) has requested more time to respond to accusations by the European Commission that the company is trying to use its leverage to squeeze rival Advanced Micro Devices (NYSE: AMD) out of the market.
The EU accused Intel in July of using bribes, rebates, and pricing wars to drive AMD from the market. Fines from the charges could potentially run as high as $3.2 billion, and the Commission recently upheld a $613 million fine against Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) for anticompetitive moves.
Intel(copytel) chips are used in about 8% of personal computers sold worldwide.
Intel(copytel) is struggling to keep market share against superior AMD products which intel(copytel) is about to knock off to try and save there ailing company.
Every chip intel(copytel) now sells is obsoleted by the nehalem barcelona knock off planned soon.
You dont have to wait for the best technology, you can buy AMD now with future proof design.
AMD designs are so good intel is going to copy it.
Don't buy copy-cat technology, buy the ORIGINAL and BEST.... AMD.
BUY FROM THE TECHNICAL LEADER....AMD
BUY AMD hi performance, energy saving, low cost, most copied, cpus, platforms, and video solutions.
AMD screwing over the channel again:
"Their management has no answers for the channel as to 'Where is this product?' Their response, instead of the truth, is silence. It's difficult getting no feedback from AMD, when a year ago Hector Ruiz said we will never turn our back on the channel. And now it looks like AMD has fallen into the same pattern, taking care of their Tier 1's and some favored partners, and turning their back on the channel," he said.

Nah, we don't have to deal with you, 10-Watt....heckling, belittling, making fun of, calling you on your bullshit isn't dealing with you...it's more showing you what a pathetic piece of shit, self-centered, misinformed, halfwitted, nutsucking loser you really are...I've fired people smarter than you for being stupid...
So BaronMatrix is on the TomsHardware forum, complaining about low CPU prices. Dear god, the prospect of building a PC with these cheap CPUs and saving a few hundred $$$ is just AWFUL isn't it?!
In BaronMatrix's ideal world my Q6600 would have cost $1500!
Howell is a fucking tool.
Enough said.
He hasn't shut up about it in months...he doesn't seem to get that he's the only one who thinks lower prices are bad...of course he also says intel is guilty of predatory pricing - nevermind that they're NOT selling procs at a loss...
But then, explaining things to him is like trying to explain physics to a retarded child....
Deal with you?
What are you going to do, attempt to insult us again over the internet?
OHHH NOES!!!!
You like the e-thuggery don't ya?
Get a life you fucking little moron.
You're the ones who anonymously call names and besmirch character. That's really gay.
And yes I did say that prices are f'd right now. Intel has still yet to have any YoY growth for 2007. That may be why they are laying people off; they can't make as much money so they have to cut costs.
Prices shouldn't be too high or too low. The former pricing scheme still enabled everyone to get a PC. This new one is just designed to make it difficult for AMD to enter into quad core.
Just because you blindly follow someone to odoriferousness and pestilence doesn't mean anything.
If you're going to use big words, at least use them in the proper contexts you moron. Did you just learn those this week?

Intel has still yet to have any YoY growth for 2007...
Please look at the Q2 2007 Quarterly report.
Q2 2007 vs. Q2 2006
Revenue $8.7 billion +8%
Operating Income $1.35 billion +26%
Net Income $1.3 billion +44%
EPS 22 cents +47%
christian,
You really ought to just stop spewing nonsense. Everyone knows Sharikou makes statements to get people riled up.
You're attempts to come off as someone intelligent and detached from Sharikou are third rate.
Too bad you don't even do the basic homework to be able to back up your claims on this blog.
What else can we expect from a Shiny Silver Phallus like you?
LOL
The reason why our beloved Christian is complaining, is that he thinks Intel priced their CPU too low, and its hurting AMD. First he argued Intel has predatory pricing, which was proven false. Then he yapped about aggressive pricing, which is also not true.
Baron, no one, but you, wants to see 500USD mid range CPUs, and 300USD low range CPUs. No one, but YOU, complained about the low price.
If you're really into overpriced CPUs, why don't you buy a pair of FX-74s? I thought you yapped about it since last Christmas, why haven't you bought it?
Q2 2007
Second-quarter gross margin was 46.9 percent, lower than the midpoint of the previous expectation. Microprocessor margins were as expected with higher unit shipments offset by lower average selling prices (ASPs). Demand for NOR flash products was lower than expected, resulting in impacts that lowered Intel's gross margin by one point.
* Total microprocessor units were higher sequentially; the ASP was lower.
* Chipset units set a record during the quarter.
* Flash memory units were higher sequentially while motherboard units were lower.
Q2 2006
Intel Corporation today announced second-quarter revenue of $8 billion, operating income of $1.1 billion, net income of $885 million and earnings per share (EPS) of 15 cents. Excluding the effects of share-based compensation, the company posted operating income of $1.4 billion, net income of $1.1 billion and EPS of 19 cents.
$8B 2006
$8.7B 2007
That's barely normal growth. Operating income actually went down from 1.4B to 1.3B. The other amounts come from layoffs and cost restructuring. Q1 07 was even worse as they were -44%. No matter what you say, this crazed pricing scheme is affecting Intel also.
I didn't wish it on them.
Care to discuss AMD's current business and financial status?
NAH... of course not...
We wouldn't want to make AMD look like they are in some serious trouble now would we...

Did you want to discuss the state of AMD and Intel's finances?
You made a claim without having done the research and you were wrong, but now it is about "normal YOY growth"...lol

In summary: Intel's Q2 results showed modest growth YoY in revenue and a large increase in profit.
Meanwhile AMD and Ati combined Q2 revenue was down ~30% and profits were down 700% YoY.
Delaying all K10 products for so long did serious harm to AMD's ASP. Hector Ruiz's retarded 'we must gain market share at all costs' campaign doesn't seem to have helped much at all.
On graphics the many repeated R6x delays hurt too.
Even worse, when K10 Barcelona and R600 finally showed up the performance was mediocre compared to the competition.
The losses aren't over for AMD. Not by a long shot. They'll need to secure more cash by the end of the year either by more loans and debts or by sell some substantial assets.

As the smaller company AMD is taking a larger hit, but they id regain a large % of the share lost in Q1.
Barcelona is basically available to whoever wants it. Brisbane is hitting 2.9GHz @ 65W. Turion is at 2.3GHz. If they can up Griffin to 2.8 in the 35-45W envelope that will make for a pretty good gaming machine.
Selling chips is the issue not being the fastest all the time.

First, Barcelona's availability. I'm not sure about you, but a lot of people are complaining about availability.

"We're extremely disappointed with AMD on a product delivery level. What's nice about the product is it runs great, it's rock solid, it really performs. The real problem seems to be is that AMD doesn't have any of these things,"
Oh shoot... I forgot Crn.com in your dictionary is considered Intel biased.
Now, Brisbane 2.9ghz. Where are they? VR-Zone said its supposed to launch this month, but where are they? No one besides VR-Zone reports them.
christian, the shiny silver phallus, mumbled,

Barcelona is not available in frequencies and quantities promised in all of the powerpoints and exec level spews. The roadmaps are a disaster and everyone including my grandma know this.

Disingenuous. If AMD had the fastest and better performing CPUs out there today you'd be claiming victory on winning benchmarks.
Good news though: K8 is handing K10 a beating therefore it has earned an extended life. How embarrasing it must be for AMD for Phenom FX CPUs to be K8 instead of K10 based.
ROFLMAO

How do you figure Phenom FX is K8 dickhead? I only use benchmarks to determine how much I have to spend.
Maybe you should come to Brooklyn and talk to me like this so I can show you the error of your bitch ass ways?
And to the guy with the dependency issues, fuck you.
AMD has 3 supercomputer wins that will require 50,000 or more chips for the orders.
As usual neither of you assholes read the whole story at CRN. The report card didn't have less than a C+ with about a B average. Let's see what happens in November.

That's one similarity between all AMD fanbois. Its always about what WILL happen in the future, never about what is happening NOW.
Chris, I have retired your OWNED Counter for now. Its too much work. Sorry.

According to my sources, you don't live in Brooklyn. I called the Brooklyn Borough office and asked them if they had record of a giant shiny silver phallus living amongst them. The LOL was unusually loud. Did you hear it in your room at Rikers?
Your panties must be tied up in a knot. Maybe you've outgrown them and your AMD fanaticism.
ROFLMAO

Actually, making money is the issue. AMD isn't selling enough chips at a high enough price to successfully amortize their massive sunk costs in K9 (scrapped twice) and K10.
AMD need to get their ASPs up, not drive them even further down. Trying to restart the price war with Intel is insane; Intel can afford lower ASPs. AMD can't.

As usual Baron's biased point of view blinded him from seeing the reality. Its ok Chris, we all understand that mental retardness is an uncurable disorder...
oops... did I just insult the retarded?
The report I posted completely contradicts with your statement that "everyone can get one Barcelona if they want to". I guess Chris, by revealing your name and your location didn't really help with your credibility.
What will happen in November? Let's see. You'll see Newegg posting a bunch of Phenom X4s, but all on backorder. You won't see mass availability in Q4... well unless of course, AMD delayed them again to Q108...
Chris, guess your day of spinning news for AMD is numbered...
