Have they finally put the `man in the loop` back into chip design?

I don't care about names. If it runs good its good enough for me
Bulldozer is a good little chip.
The main reason that people dont like it, was because it was so hyped up, that everyone expected so much more from it.
Used The FX-4100 In a build. Wasnt all that disappointed. And the price has come down some, so don't think theyre all that bad xD
"Steamroller is not Bulldozer Enhanced. F*** no. The layout might look the same but our LEGO blocks are completely different. When all is said and done we should get 45% improvement and this goes to show how the Bulldozer was f***** design. This is all what Bulldozer was supposed to be." vrzone
techreport are also reporting anonymous amd engineer as is vrzone.... we shall wait and see
this 30%-45% figure comes from simulated client-focused workloads, including "digital media, productivity and gaming applications.

I hadn't bought a new set-up in years, and was surprised to see how little competition there was on the desktop CPU front. The sooner AMD are able to give Intel a proper challenge the better for everyone, I'd like to see prices coming down over time at a faster rate than they are now.
