>Let see, the 4.2GBytes per second is split evenly between the video and the CPU/everything else.< This is what Ace's Hardware was claiming all along. Curiously, when the actual announcement was made on June 4th, Ace's claimed they were previously wrong, and the bandwidth is shared as two 64-bit channels to both GPU and CPU rather than being two separate 64-bit channels. They even had a description of the crossbar switch in their article. >the greater IPC is surprising since the Hammers are also supposed to have a deeper pipe.< What I am wondering about is if Hammer has some type of multithreading. Even with Coarse Grained Multithreading Clawhammer could easily exceed the IPC of Barton in multithreaded situations, yet this would not translate to higher, or even equal, IPC in single threaded situations.
