New AMD CPUs coming out next month, unlock to a hex-core?

[Shadowlid]

Yes finally. I get to do my build at the end of speptember hello AMD Phenom II X4 970 Black Edition. I love AMD. Im supper excited about this. I was debating on which chip to get the 965 or 955. But i im gonna get the 970!!!!!

Yeah, I still have yet to see any price drops at the egg. I will be exited when they do come down.

Anyone wanna buy a 965?

If that's anywhere close to correct, I got get a 955 for the price I got my 720 at!

Yawn...get a 1090t and relax until the dozer arrives, mt 2 cents.

This will prolly what I'm gonna do. I'm thinking of having one "kick-***" AMD setup as may main rig in my Intel farm lolz and will just leave my current main 930 pc to fold until it dies.

Figures, right after I buy a 1055T...

Same here. But I've been loving every second of this 1055T as I've only owned Intel cpu's up until now... absolutely no regrets I made the switch!

In my place the 965BE C3 price is already dropping almost $30 since I bought it,

Hoping that 1090 will go down too

I'm waiting for dozer. So long as Intel is that little bit quicker AMD will have the cheaper option. This will ensure I stick with AMD. I'm a value for money kind of guy, hence haven't had an Intel rig since my old Pentium 100.....

T.T I should of waited that 970 seems pretty beast. Quad core able to be a 6 core. I hated it when I buy stuff and then a few weeks later a something better comes out

Assuming this site is accurate, it looks like around Sept 21st is when prices of stuff currently on the market will start to come down a little more.
