AMD Shanghai Launch - Database Testing
Sunday, November 23, 2008 @ 07:51:27 AST by meshal (1748 reads)
AMD

What about how Shanghai fairs against its older brother Barcelona? Well, in some cases, the gain is clearly just the increased clock speed. However, in others Shanghai achieves an increase of anywhere from 10-15% over and above the clock speed difference. It's obvious that Shanghai is what Intel would call a "Tock" of the clock for the Barcelona architecture, and it is a nice little bump for turning a few knobs and a die shrink. 2009 will be a very interesting year for AMD and Intel. Whether or not Shanghai can hold down the fort until Istanbul comes out remains to be seen.

Many Radeon HD 2000 and HD 3800 series graphics cards also ship with a DVI to HDMI dongle, so that one can experience the full video playback capabilities of these discrete graphics cards. But what level of HDMI support can Linux users expect when using these latest ATI graphics cards? We have done some testing internally and have the initial ATI Linux HDMI video and audio results to report in this article.

Would you believe that ATI ( or should I write AMD ? ) is considering to open source parts of the ATI drivers ? This was mentioned in an article written by Tom Yager at Infoworld.com. He says he has reason to speculate that the future for AMD and ATI may have more then what is immediatly shown.
