My new Bulldozer has shipped. I will be joining the ranks of the 8 core processor group. Got great advice from a fellow member here on which model to go with. Looking forward to maximizing my ram's potential and getting a nice overclock on this beast. From what I'm reading users are reporting fantastic results and this chip I just purchased for $10.00 less then my 965 cost back in the day and it was swinging deal. Please don't bore me with your anti-AMD thoughts or what benchmark you can quote as we should all hope that AMD stays a viable competitor to Intel or we'll face more increases in cost and corner cutting from them like we've just seen with Ivy Bridge. | My System Specs |
