Anyone pre-order their Venice/Diego yet?

[sandybeach]

I meant the 240,242,244,246 and 248 opteron e cores sorry.

Sun and HP are using the 250/850 and 252/850 in there servers atm

still nice chips you have there by far "YUM"

No, look again - those are E4 250 opterons. Here:

AMD Opteron Processor Model 250
Ordering Part Number (OPN) OSA250FAA5BL
Model Number 250 Socket 940
Frequency 2.4GHz Manufacturing Technology .09 micron SOI
Wattage 85.3w Stepping E4
Amperage 60.0 A CPUID AMD Opteronâ„¢ Processor 250
Core Voltage 1.35 V/1.4 V Warranty 1 year
Case Temperature 71° C Integrated Memory Controller Frequency 2.4GHz
HT Speed 1000 MHz
L2 Cache Size 1 MB
L2 Cache Speed 2.4GHz

Unless you know something I don't, those haven't yet been released......

[winston64]

I wish! If I did, I'd already have a fx57 in my hands by now.

well, ur connections are good enough were not greedy

[Major]

I see that Monarch has moved UP some of the shipment ETA's

[OC Detective]

Guys even the ETA's at Monarch are there only to settle down your emails for the newer chips.

Monarch got nailed with emails requesting the new chips aval. so thats why you see an ETA for a chip coming out almost in June

other web sites are going by some resellers lists by NOBODY's like "MIKES RESELLER LIST", lol.

The New info regarding the Next FX chip will surface in a few weeks so untill then don't expect anything but the 130nm fx-55 to surface.

Even the new rev E opterons besides the 252/852 2.6ghz 90nm will be held for awhile 4-6 weeks.. the 252/852 where brought out fast "as will be the dual core chips by AMD and Intel in server format" to satisfy the OEM's like SUN/HP and DEll to name a few

all in due time

You slag off the Reseller list but they were one of the first to show the correct BN and BP codes for these cpus. That website at no time has had an ETA for the cpus so I dont know where you are getting your stuff from they have merely been shown as new listings with absolutely no ETA given. For the first time this week they are now showing that the Tier 1 disti is placing orders for these cpus (San Diegos and Venice) - oh and that includes the FX55 90nm - so prepare to eat humble pie.

The 252/852 can be bought at a few places online as can the 250/850 e4 90nm chips if bought in a Server

Come on dude, you have been saying "this and that" forever on the new chips about release, only thing is I was the one closer to the truth in what was going to happen..

I can pull up your posts from Overclockers.com and other places yes I have seen you post on the new chips ETA's since DEC 2004 and I rem you saying 90nm fx55 was going to be out then

Now we need to sit back and let fate and or amd roll out the chips when they do.

[Dumo]

FX55BN will roll out eventually, the question is..... can it scaled more than the 130nm 55 with single phase?

[OC Detective]

Obviously Jason in disguise.
Please do pull up my posts from ocforums especially the ones from last year where I said the 90nm A64 strained silicon cpus would have an initial assembly date of February after someone had claimed October of 2004.
I alerted people to the fact the reseller listings showed the FX55 90nm in February - is it a crime to give forward information? I never ever said the FX55 90nm would be out in December - please provide the link where I said it would be.
How exactly are you closer to the truth when you claim the 90nm FX55 will never exist? rofl. What else exactly have you been "claiming" which you think is more accurate?
Oh hang on is it the one where you said they are coming out nearer June just before Monarch pulled forward the release date of the 3500+ Venice to the 27th of April? lol
How many strikes do you need before you are considered out.

[Faceless Rebel]

Well if there IS really a 90mm FX-55 we can completely discount SandyBeach as discredited forever and ever. After all, every other post he has made the entire short time I've been here has been to tell everyone how there will never, ever be a 90mm FX-55. At this point we can safely say that SandyBeach has staked his entire reputation on this sole solitary fact.

Good luck to you, SandyBeach! May your prediction come true!

[Formann]

San Diego 3700+ - ETA - NO .... cant have that. I canceled my order.

Got my self an FX55 instead .. should arrive here tomorrow

[cpulloverclock]

I can have a 3700+ or 4000+ in a few days but I hesitate which to have
a 3700+ will be good to oc?
How much could I hope with about -45°C full load? and with a 4000+?

not the same frequencies?

3700+ = about 280 euro
400+ = about 460 euro

a difference of 180...

I saw this preview and it's bad

I knew about the 252's & 852's shipping, but I thought that they were still using the older 250's in their servers. Got any links?
BTW, I've been told by a pretty reliable source that there will be a 90nm FX55.

90nm FX-55?
Was he talking about a 90nm FX being the FX-57?
Would AMD remake the FX-55 into a 90nm when the FX-57 will be at 90nm?

[Turok]

Huh?
I guess your right. In this list I found 2 FX-55's
One in Oct 2004, and another one in Apr 2005

http://www.c627627.com/AMD/Athlon64/

[sandybeach]

E4 Stepping: 90nm, SSE3 Support To 2.6GHz

CPUs with new E4 stepping will be available with processor speeds up to 2.6GHz in the Opteron 152, 252 and 852. The processors are slated for application in IBM, Sun and Egenera servers.


The die that is the most potent CPU for the desktop market is still the Athlon 64 FX-55, which also works with 2.6GHz. It's no secret that the HyperTransport links of these processors can achieve higher data transfer speeds of around 8 GB/s when working according to the HT1000 standard. AMD rates the thermal design power of its new dual-core processor with just under 200 million transistors at a little less than 93 watts - a far cry from Intel's TDP 115 or TDP 130.

No news of fx55 90nm here either and this is from AMD factor tour just a few days ago

[OC Detective]

I hope that is not the THG article you are referring to that is riddled with errors. The other thing is that the fabrication process for Opterons and FXs is exactly the same and there would be no way of knowing (to an outsider that is) what they would be prior to them being laser etched when they are in Singapore for final testing!

Sandy, give it up. Unless AMD all of a suden pulls the part #, there is a FX55 .09 part # and it is ADAFX55BNBOX It is listed at distribution level as well as a few pre-orders.

What is your problem dude?

This is an AMD distributer site. Type in FX-55 in the search box and see what comes up. They only list what AMD tells them as far as parts are concerned.

I have a resellers account with D&H and it is also listed.

He reminds me of a stock basher. They actually higher people to bash companies so their stock will go down .

He makes no sense whatso ever

[sandybeach]

xman, I have no prob's. I've used like 25 fx-55's Ive just seen the fx55 90nm listed since dec on resellers lists is all. To me unless its instock ATM its a flalse hope.

As for AMD bashing, lol I have "NEVER" in my life used intel nor do I plan too so unless Im going with Cyrix or something I think my heart is with AMD> I just learn to not get my hopes up over preorder or things you pull up on yahoo that have 3 listings to a part # that the fx55 90nm carry

I want it more than you could know, the next fx 55/57, but Im not one of these guys like the 10000 that jumped at Sparco that will be dispointed when the chips never ship becasue or a buzz put up online buy certian people

[OC Detective]

Yes Jason no need to boast about your FX55s oh and they only appeared on resellers lists in February and like I said they have never ever given an ETA (same as venice and Sen Diego) they merely showed them as a part that WILL (i.e future tense) exist. You can doubt authorised distis all you want but they will come out. As to Sparco is it a crime to give people a heads up as to where the stock is claimed to be coming out or maybe you think it is spamming? lol
Finally your claim about being "closer" to the truth regarding release dates and my ocforum posts - you wouldnt be referring to this one from early January would you? (post #3)? No? Thought not.
http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.p...ghlight=venice
Irrespective of what you claim you obviously do have a problem because you bleat to anyone who will listen that the FX55 90nm will not exist and that the FX57 is due out around end of May! Is that a FX57 90nm I see before me in my crystal ball? - er no.

[cpulloverclock]

3700+, 3800+ and maybe 4000+ available since today in Akiba
Japan inside

[xgman]

Other than multi lock, is there any difference between the 4000 and the 55 parts? Do you think the 55 is binned for more headroom even though they run at the same frequency? And by the way, I think when the fx55 90 does ship, it will be a pretty good look at the fx57 to come on the same process.
