LUZR4LIFE Posted July 15, 2011 Posted July 15, 2011 Just thought I would share. The released version should be much better,http://vr-zone.com/articles/purported-amd-bulldozer-benchmarks-leaked/12914.html Quote
ccl0 Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 latest news i've read, that the new cpu has been delayed until sept 19th Quote
LUZR4LIFE Posted July 29, 2011 Author Posted July 29, 2011 I just found out to day that it will not be released on the 19th from inside sources. I am pissed. Quote
ccl0 Posted July 29, 2011 Posted July 29, 2011 yea, i think they had some issues to sort out. so any of those leaked performance numbers are probably fake or engineering samples. only other thing i know is the 8 core chip will priced at $300 http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/cpu/display/20110728094628_AMD_Confirms_Pricing_of_Eight_Core_FX_Processors_Approximately_300.htmlfrom what i remember, the FX-series is the ones that come unlocked (i think) Quote
LUZR4LIFE Posted July 30, 2011 Author Posted July 30, 2011 FX was the series that killed Intel way back. LOL. The specs are correct but the release date is wrong Quote
ccl0 Posted August 12, 2011 Posted August 12, 2011 hm. interesting if true http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/coolers/display/20110811072448_AMD_Considers_Equipping_FX_Chips_with_Liquid_Cooling_Solution.html Quote
ccl0 Posted September 6, 2011 Posted September 6, 2011 well this sucks. seems to be delayed AGAIN :ranting:http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/cpu/display/20110906133712_AMD_Reschedules_Launch_of_FX_Series_Chips_to_October_Changes_Launch_Lineup.html Quote
LUZR4LIFE Posted September 7, 2011 Author Posted September 7, 2011 Yeah, there is no official release date. There is also talk about BD not being released on the 990FX mobo's and that they will be release for 1090FX mobo's. The 1090FX mobo's will have PCI-E 3.0 etc. on them Quote
ccl0 Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 early reviews not that great http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2197909 Quote
LUZR4LIFE Posted October 12, 2011 Author Posted October 12, 2011 early reviews not that great http://forums.anandt...d.php?t=2197909I know. I am very disappointed. I was going to by the 8150 today but since my 1090's beat it, I will stick with them for awhile. I will probably wait for a EPP and get it then but right now I can spend 250 for just a extra "2 cores". I would still like to have a "QMP" (Quad Modular Processor). Quote
NIM Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Seems that i7 is a beast, but very expensive as well. Quote
ccl0 Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 I was really hopeful for bd..but its just not for me. It almost seems like amd is selling this to the wrong people (home users)as opposed to business/server/enterprise companies etc. Really a shame. I had amd durons, thunderbirds, athalon 64s... But my next cpu will be intel. I put off building a new system for months hoping bd would be something great, and have been let down. Quote
LUZR4LIFE Posted October 13, 2011 Author Posted October 13, 2011 Yeah, this would be great for servers etc. I am still going to get it but at a later date. Quote
