新的八卦 這次好消息比較多 至於要信多少就看個人了
* All overclocking is done via Overdrive, you can't change any performance
features at all in the BIOS (on to that next) at all.
* BIOS or UEFI is actually built into the CPU, so only AMD can update the
"BIOS" or microcode. All overclocking must take place within the Operating
system
* Right now it takes up to 30 minutes to clear the BIOS. If you remove the
CPU and place it on another motherboard, it'll have the same settings applied
as on the previous board. So debugging is a nightmare
* 6850K SKU (May not be final designation) is wait for it.... $300 roughly.
That's 8 Cores and 16 Threads
* AMD's Hyper Threading is called SMU and it is ************ good. The same
efficiency as Intel's HT.
* Performance is really good, be it SuperPi, Cinebench, 3DMark etc, it's FPU
performance is incredibly good and easily matching that of what Intel offers.
* Current performance is staggering even though it is limited to 2133MHz (as
mentioned before) and NorthBridge Frequency is limited to 2400MHz
* There will be a nigher SKU than the 6850K, but it is a higher bin so it
will certainly overclock better than 6850K and that may carry a premium
price, but unlikely to be double.
* There's plenty of excitement from all board vendors about the platform, so
we will see how it all pans out. (Especially with the hot mess that INTEL has
in store for us H2 2017, that we can leave to another thread)
* For Gaming, the CPU is neck and neck with INTEL, even at low res where CPU
bound.
