AMD FX (Bulldozer to Zambizie to FX)
#1

Hey all,

As you all know AMD is or has released the new and much anticipated FX (bulldozer) cpu.

It currently has four CPUs released; a 4-core, six-core and two 8-core CPUs.

Here is a link to scans pricing of these new chips and they are very competitive

Even though the reviews and bechmarks are not a great as they are thought to be, i think that this will be one of the best, if not the best chips for gaming for the future, when games will require a lot more cpu power and more cores to run the games

On top of this, Bulldozer architechture allows for ridiculous clock speeds, even the 4-core base model can reach 4.2GHz on stock cooling at 95W. Its rumoured that the flagship 8-core bulldozer (yet to be released) will be able to reach a whopping 5GHz on stock air cooling and still remain well below the max temp of 71 degrees ( i feel that this max temp is pretty poor)

Anyway, i hope you like this bit of information and hope its helpfull
