• 18 CU's vs. 12 CU's =/= 50% more performance. Multi-core processors have inherent inefficiency with more CU's, so it's simply incorrect to say 50% more GPU.

Sorry, you lost all credibility with this line.

CPU's and GPU's process information completely differently.

iissshhh... CU != CPU :) He is talking about "Compute Units" in the GPU... Not sure who lost credibility here

Permalite knows that.

I dont think you understood hes post.

Edit: feel free to correct me Permalite didnt mean to speak for you!

Anyways as I understand it modern day GPU's scale almost linearly with added gpu cores. Especially in tasks that favour parrallel processing. It just happens that a lot of what GPU's do gain from this.

CPU's on the other hand are not inherently like that.
