Re: On multithreaded benches Conroe's apparent lead shrinks accordingly.

Conroe's performance on multithreaded media encoders is pretty darned nice.

Re: It's not just me claiming it's the memory controller it's AMD and whole world vs you

Sorry I don't blindly accept the naive notion that the IMC solved all of AMD's problems, and instead choose to give credit to the rest of the core improvements that many engineers and architects spent a large amount of time revamping. The fact is that people have written about this before in multiple places. I suggested you try looking it up on Ace's, which you claim to be fairly familiar with, or Hans DeVries site. I guess you haven't bothered yet.

Re: Firstly the benches weren't synthetic and your characterisation that the K8's uarch changes can't be used on cache bound work is just yet another example of your biased ignorance being paraded as knowledge.

What I said was that it could easily depend on the instruction mix. Now are you going to find me those benchmarks, or are you just going to make yourself look stupider by misrepresenting everything I tell you?
