AMD?!? I’ve already had 2 burned AMD CPUs (1 laptop 1 desktop) in the past. Expect a lot of YLODs for this model.

Sana maging enthusiastic ang mga hackers sa pagtinker sa PS4. Once marelease yan sa market, I’m confident na may magiging available na mod para makapag-install ng Linux dyan sa PS4. The architecture is x86, so hindi impossible ang Linux install.

Ampota! Amd is better than intel? Ginagago mo ba ako? Hindi lahat nadadaan sa stock (speed)o oc capability para mag conclude na mas maganda Amd sa Intel. Andaming Factors dapat, i-consider or reconsider (sa kaso mo). Unang una yung core architecture ng bawat cpu manafacturer. Like ngayon, FX series vs Core series. Kung titignan sa benchmarks, palaging nauuna ang Intel. Mura lang ang intel at maganda silang pang oc pero nag bobottleneck yung performance ng cpu dahil sa pagkagawa nito. e.g. Fx8350 = 8 cores/8threads, ang cores noon ay divided into 2: So, meron tayong cores 1&2 | 3&4 | 5&6 | 7&8.
Bawat core ay may ALU pero ang pangit doon kada PAIR ng CPU ay nagshahare sila ng FPU. Kaya hindi masyadong maganda ang pag bigay ng “instructions” sa cpu. Not like sa Intel, cores 1 | 2 | 3 | 4, may sarisarili silang ALU at FPU bawat cores kaya hindi nag bobottleneck compared sa AMD. Tska hindi na gaganda ang perf ng top-of-the-line cpu ng AMD kesa sa Intel (at this point of time) kahit pa yung Fx9xxx series nila na oc/boost speed na 5.0 ghz na 8 core? Wala parin yan compared sa mga i7 or mga Intel server cpus. Evident yan an daming benchmark na nauuna talaga ang intel, kaya di mo pwedeng sabihin ang Amd mas maganda sa Intel. Tska mura lang sila pero yung TDP mo naman ang taas kaya wala din, yung binayad mo sa kuryente ay sana pinambili mo na ng i7 haswell. Lol! And one more thing, yung flagship ng amd cpu, pag tinignan mo sa mga benchmarks, hahahahahah! Sila yung nasa baba para sa Tier na “Hardcore” tas mga kasama pa nila mga older cpu ng intel? See kahit luma na ang ganda parin.
