AMD Bulldozer Predictions and Expectations

The following will be both what I predict to see from Bulldozer (based on some of the information we have seen) and partly what I'd like to see happen. I must state, this is speculation on my part so could be way off of the mark though I'd hope that wasn't the case. (more)

All CPU Processors

The processor is one of the most important components in a modern computer. The term processor, CPU, ‘brain’ and chip generally refer to the central processing unit. Every action and command your PC does depends on interaction with the CPU so its performance is crucial to the overall computer experience. Today comparing processors is no longer about finding the highest speed processor possible in MHz or GHz. To get the best performance you need to take into account the whole specification of the processor including the number of cores it has, system bus speed and the amount of cache to work out its performance.

AMD Llano: What you need to know

AMD has been a leader in graphics design ever since its acquisition of ATI several years ago and currently holds the crown of the fastest graphics card produced to date. It has taken several years of development and product evolution for the results of this merger to become apparent to the general public; but thankfully it seems that time is upon us. The AMD Athlon II range of chips has served AMD well but has increasingly been squeezed into the value market where acceptable performance and excellent value for money are the aim of the game. This has left Intel almost a free reign in the middle to high range of processors to set its pricing as it pleased. Select processors from AMD’s Phenom series have caused Intel to pause for thought, such as the X4 970 and X6 1055T, but nothing you could honestly say was a game changer. Certainly nothing that Intel could not counter by reducing the price of some of its range. Thankfully, Llano holds a lot of promise, with competitive pricing and a revolutionary take on what a processor is this is AMD truly back on form. Incorporating a quad-core processor, DirectX11 integrated graphics and the Northbridge into a single chip is an impressive feat. AMD is calling this melding of technology an APU or “Accelerated Processing Unit” which, for the first time ever, makes a computer’s processor more than just the sum of its parts. Take a look at the launch trailer from AMD for a little more information: AMD has been pushing the branding of Fusion for a while now and it is finally upon us. Going back to 2009, when the first rumours of this platform surfaced, it seemed like a farfetched platform and it has certainly taken AMD a long time to get physical products to market. Initially AMD will be launching two Llano A-Series APUs and then five more at a later date which is as of yet unknown.  The top of the line APU is the A8-3850 which is priced at £106.25, it has a 2.90GHz quad-core CPU, 600MHz GPU with 400 Radeon cores (sometimes known as...
