AMD "Istanbul" Demo: 24-Cores Operating & Virtualization

this is a server processor,s e r v e r,socket 1207which isn't desktop pc or mobo compatible,wish it was because yes theoretically it would disable the bottleneck effect,but wtf are you talking about? 395 gtx,this is vaporware,ie non existent product???
unless you know something everyone else on the planet doesnt?spill it,give me links,posts,web pages,sites info,whatever you have on this 395 gtx of yours,send the links

Would this CPU @ 3.4 beat a Phenom 965 @ 3.4 when used with a GTX 395 (yes 395!) atleast at 1920x1200?..to really help the mighty graphics card get more speed from 2 extra cores even if games don't make use of more than a quad but the extra cores help out the bottleneck?

Am i right on any of this??

this thing probably runs multiple stress tests on idle lol

4 CPU's "istanbuls" each with 6 cores
6 X 4=24 yay you learned basic mathmatics

is that cpu only for servers?? or could it be used in a gaming computer???

It's a socket F processor "ment for servers" but would destroy games
you'd have to get a socket F mother board

Uh, getting a server CPU for gaming is like getting a render card for gaming.

24 cores -_-.....>.>!

Any comments about LINUX compatibility with this new processor?

I am especially interested in compatibility issues with Debian based distributions.

Thanks for any feedback.

I guess you are talking about the Tyan S4980G2NR. Cool "little" mother.... . To bad Tyan put it out of production.
