AMD Bulldozer has 800 million transistors less

Processor 721 Published by

Guru3D.com ImageWhen you do reviews on procesors, there's certain stuff you need to take for granted.

So if AMD says the processor has 2 Billion transistors .. we'll I'm not about to count them to verify really ! Yesterday AMD PR send word arround that itt is now correcting all reviewers. 1.2B is the correct count not 2B, so there's a 800 million transistor count discrepenacy.

The die area, at least, remained the same for an 8-core/4-module Bulldozer: 315 square millimeters. It is a bit strange that it took Advanced Micro Devices so long to spot the error.

We'll update the reviews soon.
