Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Performance for GNU-Radio: Intel i3-6100 or AMD FX-4300

[mleech]

Yeah, the entire FX series (I think) has a single FP-unit per *pair* of cores.

This is in contrast to that which went before, the Phenom II X6, for example, had 6 FP units.

The AMD only has 2 floating point units too, they just define "core" differently(believe there was a class action lawsuit over this started recently). Given GR is mostly FP math, I'd go with the intel.

I'm buying a new computer and two possible options will be intel

Performance using GNU-Radio may be the key to the selection of one or
the other.

I guess the more cores the CPU, the better the performance.

FX-4300 is 4 cores,  i3-6100 is only two cores but they say both of them
runs 4 threads.

I should think that a real core (AMD) will work faster than a "logic"
one (intel), but reading benchmarks it seems that i3-6100 beats FX-4300
.....  but  what with GNU-Radio?

Anyone has test both?
