Sign up for this crazy offer and your first month is only $75 and second and subsequent months are regular price at $150/month. Take a full 50% off your first month's rental. Hurry up because only four Phenom servers are available this week. Here are the specs:


Quadcore Phenom II dedicated server

Dedicated physical hardware(not a VPS)
Full root access.
Four AMD Phenom cores @ 3.0 Ghz each. Total 12,000 Mhz!
8192MB RAM
2,000 GB space (1.0 TB SATA X2 non raid)
12,000 GB bandwidth
Any version of Linux installed
Free reinstalls
Free reboots
5 dedicated IPs

$75/month first month, $150/mo afterwards

Cpanel $30/month extra. No warez. Porn allowed but legal porn only and over 18 since the servers are in the US. Proxies are allowed. The bandwidth is estimated to be around 12 TB per month on the unmetered but shared 100 mbps connection.

The servers are unmanaged but for $30/mo extra they can be fully managed too. Free assistance is available for new customers who need help migrating everything from their old server.

Want to run a scraper, or blast with Xrumer and need more IPs? No problem. $30/month will get you 64 extra IPs.

Want to pay even less? Then take the same server with one 500GB hard drive for only $100 per month and half price at only $50 for the first month!

This offer is only valid through the first week of October, till the servers run out or until I come to my senses, whichever occurs first so if you think this is a good deal then move fast.

Quad core 3Gz doesn't mean a single task gets 12 ghz, Just like how a dual core chip doesn't mean twice as fast.

PS: I never even mentioned a P4 Xeon, I don't even see what that has to do with your math of thinking that 4 cores means quadruple speeds, real world results have shown that not to be the case.

I never said a single task would get 12 ghz of processing power, what I said was that the way I had added Ghz was a very crude way of gauging the horsepower of this processor so a single core intel or amd CPU from yesteryear.

PS: I never said just the quad cores in themselves would give you quadruple speeds. There is a lot more involved. The Phenom II is a 45nm CPU which has a hell of a lot of L2 and L3 cache.

but it certainly should mean 12ghz of processing power.


its just not possible for one thread to use more than 3ghz

Uhh yeah it's not. Oh but guess what, people do tend to run more than 1 thread at a time on their servers. So if anyone ran an app on this server which was coded after 1980 and it was *multithreaded* then they could make full use of the four cores by splitting the threads evenly.

I've benched this system and compared it to a single core 3.0 Ghz old school P4 processor system and it does come out about four times faster!

So anyway back to my original point. If a noob considered a 3 Ghz P4 single core CPU to be running at 3,000 Mhz and considers this Quad core running at 12,000 Mhz and based on a misconception assumes that this phenom is four times faster than the P4 at CPU intensive tasks then guess what? By accident, the noob's misconception is correct! This processor is indeed four times faster than that P4 according to whetstone and drhystone benchmarks.
 
Wow, you probably could have actually sold some of these before you exhibited your complete incompetence claiming quad cores are 4x faster. They aren't.

They are actually more than four times faster than the older single core P4s in CPU intensive tasks which is all I really claimed. If you actually read my posts you would see that.

PassMark Intel vs AMD CPU Benchmarks - High End <--- Find the 940 here, 3,539

and compare it to the P4 single core here ---> PassMark CPU Benchmarks - Mid Range CPU's 482

Oh wow could I possibly have been right? The benchmark of the quad core seems to be more than four times the value of the single core!

Lets look at what I said in post #2:

It does when you're a noob and can't otherwise comprehend that a quad-core 45nm Phenom II CPU at 3 Ghz is a hell of a lot faster than a 3.0 Ghz P4 Xeon.

Lets look again at what I said in post #8:

what I said was that the way I had added Ghz was a very crude way of gauging the horsepower of this processor so a single core intel or amd CPU from yesteryear.

and just underneath that I said:

PS: I never said just the quad cores in themselves would give you quadruple speeds. There is a lot more involved. The Phenom II is a 45nm CPU which has a hell of a lot of L2 and L3 cache.


It's not just the number of cores that are increasing in CPUs as time progresses, the number of total transistors, the thinness of the die, the amount of L1, L2 and L3 cache and the efficiency of the processors as a whole is increasing along with the number of cores in the CPUs. In two or three years we will see 8-core and 12-core CPUs. Now I would bet that a 12-core CPU running at 3.5 Ghz or so that comes out in 2012 or so will be about 12 times faster in CPU intensive tasks than the single core P4 was running at 3.0 Ghz. So that crude formula of mine just might again actually be a halfway decent way of gauging comparative CPU power.
 
Some of you guys need to get off your high horses, yes we all know that the chances of it running at 12,000 Mhz are nil, but claiming that is no different than what happens every day in marketing (example cars). Theres 4 cores at 3 GHz each with 8 gigs of ram, for $150 it's still a good deal. Go after it.

It's in FDC ... I'll pass.
