As the launch of the AMD FX-series microprocessors code-named
"Zambezi" gets nearer, more information about the chips powered by
Bulldozer micro-architecture emerge on the web. Based on a recent leak,
one of AMD's premium eight-core FX chip will operate at 2.80GHz in
default mode and will be able to almost match Intel Corp.'s six-core
Core i7-980X Extreme Edition processor in terms of performance.
A major maker of mainboards has reportedly released some of the
technical specs and benchmark results of AMD FX 8110 microprocessor for
internal use. The information somehow leaked to general public and was
republished by a number of web sites (1, 2).
Although the specifications of the chip as well as its benchmark
results come from strictly unofficial sources, there are indirect
evidences that confirm that the information published is at least
partially correct. Furthermore, certain specifications revealed by the
screenshot are confirmed by AMD's internal documents seen by X-bit labs.
