Hey again. According to a review from Hexus.net, there is a middle turbo ratio between 4000 MHz and 3400 MHz. They noticed a 3700 MHz.

Is it possible to list all the middle turbo frequencies for these Piledrivers based processors, A Series and FX Series like you're doing for Opterons?

I couldn't find all-cores boost frequencies in any AMD documents or on the AMD website, which is why they are not listed. I do have one feature in the works, that may provide this information. I wrote a small program that grabs some interesting data from PCI and MSR CPU registers, and this information contains a list of P-states for the processor, including 2 boost states. Once I finish a script, that deciphers this data and adds it to other CPUID data, the P-states data will be posted on the site. I was hoping to finish it by next week.

Any update on this?

I found a program named K10Stat, but it doesn't seem to work for bulldozer (I have a FX-8150 and it didn't work for me).

I think CPU-Z has got something too - (sorry for double post)

Quote:
Parameters
----------

-txt=filename : Launch CPU-Z in ghost mode (no interface appears) and generates the register dump file (.txt)
in the same directory as the exe file.

-html=filename : Same as "-txt" except it generates the html report.


Found something interesting for my processor, and should be what we're looking for.

The project hit a snag, and it was delayed as a result. It can't get some information from PCI registers. I'll see if I can make something working this week.

By the way, take a look at TurionPowerControl:

http://code.google.com/p/turionpowercontrol/

It can show a list of P-states, including turbo states. I believe it supports FX processors.
