•  
• Intel Core i7-3930K - $ 560;
•  
• Intel Core i7-3820 - $ 300.

To some extent confirmed by information on the possible announcement of the desktop chip AMD FX 19 September of the year.Source vague hints at the announcement of the platform Bulldozer during 12-23 September.

Secret plans of AMD, according to which the company strategy to manufacture 10 nuclear processors in the next year.

Despite the fact that the release of an 8-core processors FX series we did not wait for this year (the company decided to move safely release at the beginning of 2012), managed to open some of the secret plans of AMD, according to which the company plans to manufacture 10 nuclear processors in the next year.

Heir future processors FX-Series (codenamed Zambezi) known as Komodo. It should be the first AMD processor which is endowed with ten x86 cores. Of course, we have heard of Komodo in the last year, but then it was only about 8 cores.

"New" Komodo uses 10 cores Piledriver (2.0 Bulldozer?), has support for the Turbo Core 3.0, built-in memory controller for DDR3 and socket will use the FM2. Komodo produce 32nm process technology will be on, and it will become part of the platform Corona (with chipset Hudson D4, which offers native support for four USB 3.0 and eight SATA 6.0 Gbps ports).

In addition to AMD's roadmap Komodo offers information about APU Trinity and Wichita, which will take the initial and middle price segments in desktop computers. Trinity will replace the currently existing processors A-Series (Llano), and Wichita will, in turn, the receiver E-Series (Zacate). Trinity will be based on 32nm process technology and Wichita on 28nm.

The new information regarding the Intel Core i7-3960X, Core i7-3930X and Core i7-3820 [Sandy Bridge-E]

Donanim Haber has published recent data on Sandy Bridge-E. According to the Turkish edition, the first models of this series - it's Core i7-3960X, Core i7-3930X and Core i7-3820. The first two models will be positioned in a segment of hi-end and will be a proud title Extreme Edition. According to reports, they will have 15 and 12 MB cache and will come with an open multiplier. Rated clock Core i7-3960X and 3930X of 3.3 and 3.2 GHz, respectively, but the mode Turbo Boost, these processors will be able to accelerate to 3.9 and 3.8 GHz. Their TDP - 130W.

The latest model of the trio, Core i7-3820, will only have four cores and will not be included in the family Extreme Edition. The processor will have only 10 and not 15 or 12 MB of cache, as Core i7-3860X and 3930X. Its TDP -130 Tues

It only remains to add that all of the above model will support a 4-channel memory.

AMD Bulldozer Exit Program of October

According to the site DonanimHaber, the output of first processors AMD Bulldozer is scheduled for October . Lineup includes no less than seven processors of the FX: four eight-, six-two and two quad-core. Chips in the performance of Socket AM3 + produced at rates of 32-nanometer manufacturing process have a 1 MB cache memory of L2 per core. In the arsenal of FX / Zambezi including support for technology Turbo Core 2.0, a free factor and an integrated dual-channel memory DDR3-1866 MHz.

Flagship, the CPU FX-8150 boasts a clock speed of 3.6 - 4.2 GHz and TDP 125 watts. Behind him appear on the market processors FX-8120 and FX-8100 with a clock speed of 3.1 - 4.0 and 2.8 - 3.7 GHz, respectively. Thermal data packet of chips will be 125 and 95 watts respectively. Six-core chip TDP level of FX-6120 and Quad-FX-4120 would be 95 watts. The TDP level model FX-6100 and FX-4100 is identical to the previous processor, and the frequency of 3.3 - 3.9 and 3.6 - 3.8 GHz, respectively.

Bulldozer Sandy Bridge is Most Powerful AMD Processor

Apparently, AMD processors are a series of FX (codenamed - Bulldozer) may represent a threat to Intel. According to a preliminary test, published in Donanimhaber.com end of last week, the engineering design model FX-8310P has managed to circumvent the Core i7-2600K in a number of tests, although he conceded brainchild of Intel in SuperPi.

According to Turkish experts, Bulldozer passed the test on the coding of video streams (x264) with the results of 136 and 45fps (frames per second) in the first and second passages, and the Core i7-2600K - 100 and 36fps. This latest AMD processor also managed to get ahead of Core i7-2600K in 3DMark 11 (6250 points against 6000 points). By the way, he also showed better results than the Core i7-2600K in Cinebench R10, but apparently lost Core i7-990X. According Donanim Haber, Bulldozer about 50 percent more powerful than the Phenom II X6 1100T.

It is worth noting that Bulldozer has not yet formally presented, but AMD has made it clear that these processors will be positioned in a segment of hi-end. As for the Core i7-2600K, is currently the most powerful processor for desktop systems in the lineup from Intel, but it is positioned in a segment of a system to improve performance. As the data from Donanim Haber, Buldozer still inferior to Core i7-990X, although the latter will soon be replaced by the latest Intel microarchitecture Sandy Bridge-E. It is expected that they will be much more powerful Core i7-990X. However, this is the first alarm for Intel. In other words, do not rest on our laurels and underestimate AMD, the more so because its processors have very attractive price / performance ratio.

It only remains to add that in this case we are talking about pre-testing and engineering sample Bulldozer, so too early to draw any conclusions.
