  1. but isn't that test quite GPU bound as it's name suggests, not CPU?

    I don't really know

  2. It is GPU and CPU bound, as the score is made up for GPU score / CPU score / and Combined Score all together! The GPU score alone is GPU bound.

    1. nice to see both perform similarly

      I wonder what Piledriver would do

      AMD 2.0s are much better than 1.0s, PHII is much better than PHI, Turbo Core 2.0 actually works while 1.0 doesn't....
