AMD FX-Series Lineup Revealed in CPU Support List.
I thought this was an interesting article on the new AMD FX Series “Bulldozer” 8 core processors. I’m thinking I really like what I see. I might have to pick one up. I really like the L2 and L3 cache is 8mb which is Alot better than previous AMD processors with the 6mb cache. I currently use the 1100T 6 core which I have to admit the 6mb cache is definitely nice especially running games. I also like the fact that they maintained the wattage from the 6 core to the 8 core being the same, I’d think the 8 core would be 145w or so.
Also I was reading this article on the design details of the new FX Series. http://www.tomshardware.com/news/amd-bulldozer-zambezi-processor-am3,13272.html
Seems like AM3+ is going to be pretty nice. Hopefully they make upper end motherboards that people recently bought update in the bios to accept AM3/AM3+ for boards that are set to AM3 only.
I can’t wait for the launch, I’m looking forward to viewing the price category on these processors. Hopefully it is within a decent price range so I can pick one up.
