AMD Trinity & Richland APU Discussion

re: AMD Trinity & Richland APU Discussion

AMD is so wasted!!!!

23.775 @3.8 GHz on Trinity @ SPI 1m.
Although, I think it wud be running at 4.2GHz coz SPI is single threaded.

Anyways my Athlon X2 7750 does 23.922sec in SPI 1m @ 3375MHz.
It was launched by AMD in 2008.

According to this Piledriver is actually slower than a Phenom I/K10 with IPC actually lower than a Kuma/Agena/Toliman!

looks good but AMD is still lagging in case of memory performance.i don't know when they will get their IMC performance to the height of Intel one.btw hope AMD is running their memory at 1600-2000MHz in those notebooks.if they are not they should because they will be highly benefited by higher memory speeds.
do you think passmark is a reliable benchmark because i never felt like that.their benchmarks always contradicts with others.

re: AMD Trinity & Richland APU Discussion

well, the thing is - if Passmark shows improvement between two AMD generations based on similar architecture, then there has to be improvement. That's what I am looking at.

i got your point now.now what i am thinking is A8 3870 which is the high end desktop llano and it has got 4800 passmark and where as the mobile part of the trinity A10 4600M has got 5400 points.so how will be A10 5800k?
it will just rock.hope so.....

AMD Begins Volume Manufacturing of A-Series "Trinity" APUs - X-bit labs

Thanks to usage of a new resonant clock mesh technology developed by Cyclos Semiconductor and implemented into Piledriver-class x86 cores, Trinity will be able to both offer ultra low-voltage models as well as very high-performance models. Rich family of different A-series "Trinity" Fusion APUs will broaden market prospects for the APU to a wide range of applications and form-factors, from ultra-thin laptops to full-size desktops.


According to performance benchmarks conducted by AMD, the Trinity 35W APU with Piledriver-class x86 cores will provide 25% better x86 performance compared to Llano 35W (with K10.5+ "Husky" x86 cores) based on results obtained in PC Mark Vantage Productivity benchmark. AMD also claims that Trinity 35W will offer up to 50% better result in 3D Mark Vantage performance benchmark compared to Llano 35W.

Really impressive and even the single APU gfx performance beats to rival chips which is great IMO

nice find but sorry to say it was a bad article and bad analysis by the author and even those comments on the article has same opinions.

You really care about that benchmark? Run the F1 2012 benchmark on your system with IGP and then the trinity, then you will see the difference of 4 years.

The 'CPU' part is more than enough for your day to day tasks. If you are into rendering or an enthusiast, the Trinity (or for that matter any AMD chip) is not for you.

Still trailing Llano...

What type of tasks do you do dude? Are they really that CPU bottle-necked?

APU based laptops would fail in india. The reason i am telling this because if you go to a city except the metros in india the shopkeepers(most of them) are also unaware that there's another processor maker exists called AMD. And they sell intel.

As for students(in small towns & big cities alike) they generally go to their teacher/professors for advice same they got there also.
i have even heard that "dont buy AMD it is a chinese product" & i was like wtf!!!!

IMO in countries like india AMD should be the king for the consumer PC market. These APUs are best suited for general user needs.

those days are gone buddy.unless and until you go to a shop keeper who still says "ye pentium lale yaar,ye 3.5Ghz hai magar woh i5 to khali 3.2 hai"every online shop has all the AMD chips.the one who asks his professor about buying comp,huh only god can save him.

There are around 8-9 Llano based laptops found here. Availability needs to be bumped first. and anyone who have used Atom will never ever consider an Atom. Its that slow once you load W7. AMD E350 based laptops sold well.

A10 based laptops with GPU have to be priced at or under 30k.

instead read these: AMD Trinity Architectural Preview - Part I & Part II

The availability of fusion based systems is still a problem...else I am sure there are many potential buyers..

 

[topgear]

re: AMD Trinity & Richland APU Discussion

^^ talking about the availability - a fusion based complete rig from good brands may be scarce but there's no major issue of availability if one wants to assemble their own fusion based PC .

i was referring to laptops buddy... I see only Asus having them...
