    Phoronix: AMD FX-8350 "Vishera" Linux Benchmarks

    AMD today is lifting the lid on their Piledriver-based 2012 FX "Vishera" processors. Just weeks after the "Bulldozer 2" Trinity APUs were launched, the new high-end AMD FX CPUs are being rolled out. Being benchmarked at Phoronix today under Linux is the new AMD FX-8350 processor.

    It's nice for amd that there are at least some results better than intel's quad cores. It is easy to guess which benchmarks use much more commands for the integer function units compared to the floating point ones. Maybe cray could be analyzed in that way. Basically amd can only shine in fully multithreaded benchmarks and preferred without fpu code (because there are only 4 fpus but 8 for integer). I miss a bit povray, thats a fully single threaded benchmark, similar to cinebench in single threaded mode.

      Yet more trash from AMD.

      Jesus christ, step it up or go home.

        How much exactly do you know about CPU design?

          heise.de: AMD's FX-8350 125Watt TDP pure fake number 168 watts measured

          AMD is just try to fool us.

            Why are the AMDs doing so badly in floating point arithmetics? It's not like Intel has 8 FPUs and 4 integer cores...

              TDP = Thermal Design Power

              TDP is an indicator on how much sustained thermal power you have to get rid of for stable operation, not a figure for maximum power consumption. Maximum power consumption may well exceed the TDP for short periods of time.

                You are wrong because its not a short period of time you can force this output all the time.
                Thats why the Opterons clocked so much lower because the Opterons really do not HIT the TDP.
                In my point of view this cpu is only stable in a 125watt TDP cooling system if you downclock it.
                also this cpu need a 8-10phase 140-150watt mainboard.

                don't even try to buy a 125watt mainboard and 125watt cooling solution for this cpu.

                  Note that the CPU turbo mode is temperature dependant. The CPU will throttle back to base clock if CPU temperature exceeds the comfort threshold, thus a 125 Watt cooling solution will keep the CPU safe, even though you may get better sustained turbo with a more powerful cooler.

                    that?s just cheating in benchmarks because you only get the result with some nasty tricks means cheat cooling solutions.

                    John Doe cooling solution at home will never get any good result.

                    But hey that?s the fake world we life in.

                    In my point of view this is a ~150watt TDP cpu and the intel one 3770K is a ~100 watt TDP cpu.

                    Now you can save money on the CPU and then pay more power bill or you spend more money on the CPU and save on power bull in the end you pay exact the same.

                    There is no competition at all !
