According to the website DonanimHaber, AMD reported to provide a document processor performance numbers with latest CPU architectures in a presentation to the partners.

The document quoted by comparing the 8-core processor based on CPU architecture “Bulldozer” High performance with 8 threads, 4-core, Intel Core i7 950 and with six-core CPU Phenom II X6 1100T, in three different usage scenarios (medium, rendering and games).

Results vary depending on duties performed, but, ultimately, the processor Bulldozer proved himself to be about 50 faster than the Core i7 950.


Very little is known about the CPU that is used by AMD to run this benchmark, but the info has a Core i7 950 has 8MB of L3 cache, tri-channel memory controller, running at 3.06GHz and can reach speeds of up to 3.33 GHz thanks to the Turbo Boost technology .

If the numbers displayed by AMD is true, the chip should Bulldozer will also surpass the six-core processor Intel Core i7 CPU 980X.

In development since 2005, the Bulldozer is AMD’s next processor architecture for high performance processors, and optimized to provide inter-core communication is better and higher instructions per clock cycle number.

As a result, AMD uses a modular approach, each dual-core module consisting of 2MB L2 cache, 16kB 4-way L1 data cache per core and 2-way 64KB L1 instruction cache per module, two cores are dedicated to whole numbers and two symmetrical 128 FMAC-bit pipe that can be grouped into one unit of 256-bits.

In addition, the Bulldozer CPU can be configured with up to 8MB of L3 cache between cores are available. This chip will use AMD chipset motherboard 9-series and the new AM3 socket +, MSI has been showing the board in the world.
