AMD Trinity to have higher integer/FP performance than Bulldozer

Posted on Tuesday, April 10 2012 @ 22:09 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck
TPU reports AMD's Trinity APUs will deliver higher integer and floating-point performance per MHz than the Bulldozer architecture:
It found integer and floating-point performance increases clock-for-clock, against Bulldozer-based FX-8150. The benchmark is not multi-threaded, and hence gives us a fair idea of the per core performance. On a rather disturbing note, the performance-per-GHz figures of Piledriver are trailing far behind K12 architecture (Llano, A8-3850), let alone competitive architectures from Intel.
