Default Phenom Whats New?

well, i happened to be browsing this late night, and came accross this site
AMD Phenom X4 in Action
this happened to let some people have first hand experience on the PhenomX4 a Quad Core AMD...

i haven't heard any news from Capper and the other about this... and we have been talking for few months already only about Intel C2D, C2Q, C2X proc family...

apparently some sites are already mentioning of getting Phenom X4 samples for benchmarking within next month or so...

what are the programs out there utilizing the use of multiple cores?

and will this mean another price cut in the next month or so with Intel having new proc to compete at?

to tell you the truth guys, i would like to have an experience with any new AMD proc and also with 64 bit application, i just dont have the time and money to do so :D,
hopefully this coming few months, this new AMD launch would shake the competion between Intel and AMD price cuts bout...

Motherboard looks ugly compared to nVidia's reference design.

Looks like Intel's prices might come down even more!!

Its insane, these price cuts! I wonder how much the companies are actually making. AMD had a price cut on the 9th of july.. and Intel is planning one for 22nd. I will be amazed if there is another price cut for august or sept! I can't wait for the phenom :) whoooo!!!!

The motherboard layout is ok. I just wish they would put the powerconnectors on the side. I hate having wires come up over my mobo.

Yep, i'm with you on that.
PUT THE FREAKING CONNECTORS ON THE SIDE, FOR GOD'S SAKE!

Oh and the fan is dangerously close to the first PCI-e.

I wonder if the logo for the Phenom procs change much. For FX it's silver, for A64 X2 its some sort of blue, and for A64 its some sort of orange.




The greatest proof that intelligent life exists is the fact that they haven't tried to contact us yet.
