ASUS to rival with own AMD Turbo Core and Intel Turbo Boost

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 04/20/2010 09:54 AM | source: | 0 comment(s)

Quite an interesting development, though I'm not sure whatever good it will except creating a lot of confusion. TPU reports that ASUS designed its own Turbo technology comparable with AMD's Turbo Core, the ASUS Turbo Unlocker.

The technology would be more advanced than Turbo Core, since it sends every core into Boost state, rather than a limited number of cores designated as turbo cores.

What's very intersting though is that it supports several other Phenom II Black Edition series processors other than those based on the six-core Thuban or the quad-core Zosma. With single-threaded loads, the active core is given the maximum boost in clock speeds, while as multi-threaded load increases, even more number of cores enter a boost state. Boost state speeds decrease with increase in number of active cores. The technology is available on ASUS' entire range of motherboards based on the AMD 8-series chipsets. Details follow in a presentation by ASUS. It would be interesting to see if ASUS goes a step further and works out Turbo Unlocker for Intel Core i3 processors [via TPU]
