An interesting single thread performance boost compared to my current X58 platform.

However, the only thing I do which needs any level of compute performance is H264 encoding - looking at the multithread comparison I'm...
My L5639 would be 'stable' at 200bclk, as in I could pass 8hrs+ memtest and easily complete burn test, but it would occasionally crash under heavy use despite temperatures remaining under control at around 70C. The best way to crash it was to use repo to sync chromeOS source. You'd expect that...
I just pulled the trigger on a 5675 as well, replacing an L5639. My existing chip is running happily at 200bclk, so I know the MB is capable. Can't wait to see how far I can push this one :) I'll be trying out your voltage settings too Burpo!
Already having an L5639, I'm wondering if there is any reason to buy a higher base-clocked version - does the higher multiplier make it easier to reach HUGE overclocks? My board has successfully clocked over 200 bclk, but not by much and I mostly stay around there now.
I'm thinking I might...
And device OEMs care mostly because the press seems to report this crap. Whatever gets headlines is considered to be high priority. It seems that Anandtech is one of the few who try to put the effort into understanding what they are actually talking about.
I love this quote - muscle chips is *exactly* what these X58 board & Xeon combos are. Sadly its getting too hot for me, so when I have any problems with my board (and I will, I'm sure the caps will go eventually) I'll not be able to justify staying in the game.
I guess its going to be like a...
Even if this roadmap is accurate, it pretty much only talks about where Apple is going to get their Ax series CPUs from. I wouldn't be surprised if there were a separate Intel-based roadmap as well. Hell, iPad and Mac might be on the same line because they share some internal business structure...
Yeah, I love my L5639 but in the event that it gives up I suspect I'll end up getting something more modern. I really dislike being in this position of not being able to get replacement parts apart from second-hand from the US or Hong Kong. I'm not complaining right now, got my 5639 for about...
I almost never see a reasonably priced X58 board in the UK, and shipping costs a bomb. I live in fear that my board or cpu will let out the magic smoke and I'll have to buy a new platform. Last time I checked it's CHEAPER to buy a board & a mid-range i5 than most X58's here.
Hope it sells well, I like the Galaxy S and Note devices. If not, I'll be able to bag a bargain if I get one a few months after launch. I'm at least waiting to see what the Note 5 looks like first. I'll have to get an ARMv8 SoC at some point...
Quick question guys. Has anyone with an overclocked L5639 started having problems with it?
Mine has been running at 200bclk for ages now and everything has been great. Windows is stable, linux is stable etc. however in the last month or so whenever I leave windows idle for a couple of hours...
Probably the same or very similar NAND, but the interface is different. Much like serial ATA allowed the link speed to be increased, UFS is a serial interface which is much simpler to synchronise at higher speed than the previous parallel 8-bit interface. As far as I can read into press...
Thanks! I haven't been able to really follow Intel's laptop parts since you knew core 2 duo was what you wanted :)
Hang on though, you mention 35w and 45w versions of the same parts - is it just that the 35w version is 30% slower, or is it binned silicon?
So, what do I need to look for if I want a high performance quad core laptop? i5 or i7? I've got a 1st gen mobile i7 and to be honest its been a complete dog since day one. Hot, not that fast and holy hell does it like to shut down if you use the discrete GPU. I wish I'd never bought it. PoS.
Don't forget, you'll need very similar software if you have big.little or individual dvfs. I'd bet a lot of Qualcomm's energy scheduling came from krait platform research.
