In Response To: AVX on AMD processor (eXtreme Gammon)

Chuck, Tim (or anyone having an recent AMD processor) try to run XG with "-noAVX" as parameter on the shortcut. i suspect it may be faster.

Your suspicion was right. It makes a HUGE difference. I have an FX-8350

With AVX: 2.900 million
With SSE2: 4.050 million!! So this should be the default for recent AMD FX CPU

Have you tried FMA on Haswell already?
