AMD reveals AM3 socket for future DDR3 !




AMD reveals AM3 socket for future DDR3 ! And a new 4 ciphers numbering scheme for the new Revision F Opterons. Is that why desperate Intel designers left sinking Itanium dual core designs?
We recently learned that Sam Naffziger, formerly an Intel Fellow and Director of Itanium Circuits and Technology, has departed from Intel. Before leaving, he was responsible for the design of Montecito (a dual core, dual threaded Itanium processor), which has been delayed by nearly a year due to problems with an extremely interesting and aggressive dynamic feedback mechanism, codenamed Foxton. Foxton integrated an on-die ammeter that measures current, and a microcontroller that can dynamically adjust voltage and frequency based on measured results. Naffziger joined AMD in late February or early March, and will help start a Fort Collins design center.
AMD Picks up 9 High Profile Itanium Engineers.
We wouldn't like that departure to be short lived, like previous one with Andy Glew was.
I mean, Naffziger too might pick up AMD's low power solutions and than turn back to Intel. : )

Yes Montecito was delayed, the whole Itanium family is bad concieved, but Intel still doesn't give up from Itanium. Something reminds me to famous Masada rock, when Zealots have chosen death instead of surrender to the Romans. Their most basic belief was that all means were justified to attain political and religious liberty. Yeah, when we are touched politics, lets remind you that low power Tukwilla - Itanium model for the next year is called Dimona, after Israel's nuclear center, where is located illegal nuclear weapon production.
The late discovery of Dimona was clearly a major blunder of the American intelligence community. In comparative terms, that failure was more severe than the 1998 failure of the CIA to identify the Indian test because of both the length of time involved and because it involved the misreading of many pieces of available information. From an Israeli perspective, however, this failure was crucial for the survival of the nuclear project. Had the U.S. discovered Dimona soon after launching, and exerted political pressure on both France and Israel, the Dimona project might have never been completed.

I knew that UK handled heavy water purchase for Dimona from Norway about that time, but I had no
idea that France was involved in Dimona construction, though France is famous (just like the UK) after their free masons (builders).
Dimona is located in Negev desert in Israel, and it is not quite clear what is Intel's motive (as a big multinational corporation headquartered in California) to call its striking processor model after this meaningless name in 2003-2004, except that computer intelligence will find it too late. Alas, computer intelligence this time was a bit better than the famous US intelligence community during the Cold War ???*, and Itanium has now only the two remainig choices: to surrender to X86-64 or ... Masada. Seems that not all are quite ready for this second option.
*Israeli Research Reactor 1 (IRR1), first inaugurated in 1960, was donated by the USA government in the framework of "Atoms for Peace" program of President Eisenhower, to foster the use of nuclear technologies for the advancement of Israeli economy.

YEAH horray for the israeli nuclear program! Ever since they had them the nobody dared to attack them afterwards. It's the perfect deterent!

TO BAD THERES NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT!!! GO AHEAD COMPLAIN ALL YOU WANT YOU ANTI-SEMITIC JOBLESS BOSNIAN! MWAHAHAHHA!
 
"John Bell" is a glaringly ignorant crackhead.
