@Adinnieken Firstly Charlie was never credible and he never tried to be... Semi-accurate was created because some disagree between Charlie and TheInquirer... both tabloid are based in rumors... the rumors on backstage... on the underground of the industry... you need always to read with a grain of salt Semi-accurate, TheInquirer, Fudzilla,etc... they are site that do they jobs in that way... they aren't technical sites and never was supposed to be.

Most of times they are wrong but sometimes they are right.

I said the Charlie's explanations is wrong... and it is because the CPU clock and NB clock has no relations with each other besides the base clock (~200Mhz) in AMD APUs... I give even more examples over the thread why his assumptions can't be true... the way he guessed the clock is wront.

Posted articles about AMD APUs and PDF from the HotChips to support what I said. Charlie is just guessworking in a unreasonable way without any technical support.

To be fair the clock can be 1.9Ghz but not because the Charlie's arguments but MS choose to use a multiplier with give a clock close to 1.9Ghz.. I can't see the Jaguar cores going over 2.2Ghz because architecture limitation...

My guesses? 1.7Ghz for the CPU because in that way the CPU and GPU will be syncronized... the APU doesn't need to have syncronized clocks but in most cases that what happen in the industry (even so I can show to you some AMD's APU with unsyncronizaed clocks).
