AMD has been on the rampage at Analyst's Day... next on the list was showing off Phenom humming along at 3.0GHz. It's not broken!

Woot!

That even looks like a crappy reference cooler!

I'd love to know the model number on this thing.

Christ. Now my scales have tipped away from the PS3 and back to green base.

/\ wow, 960 steam processors at your fingertips would be nice.....any game that was heavy on shaders would seriously be eaten up! I hear you Amon about the PS3, but by the time you buy the PS3, buy the 5-10 games, get the extra controller and get the bigger hard drive, then you MIGHT just MIGHT have spent the same amount of money that you would on that rig alone!, but man would that be a hellofa gaming rig!

very nice rig...... but i think the graphic power on it must be about the same as 1,5-2 8800 ultras, the cpu power on that must be insane...... i await its launch and subsequent review.

proxess · 28th Jul 2007, 01:06

Looks very nice, especialy for AMD fans, tis a shame that Intel is gonna be bringing out Yorkfield so 'relitively' soon.

And right now Intel is charged by the EU (kroes) for monopolic abuse
