[Guest]

Bummer, nothing flash at all

 

[lost_in]

silly me...didn't see link for the review.....my bad

 

[eisenbricher]

Bulldozer is here, it's here!

 

[dogman_1234]

Too bad it does not perform the way it was anticipated.

/sadface.

 

[AbdullahG]

I'll pass on this Tom's...I'm too disappointed.

 

[dalauder]

Bulldozer and Duke Nukem Forever realeased in the same year! Wow...what were the chances.

 

[Prince_Porter]

Getting this rig would make my year. Even if it's not what all the enthusiasts were looking for (haven't read the review yet, but I'm seeing some Q_Qing already), it's still an amazing cpu. Checking out the review now, then entering, fingers, testicles, and whatever else I can cross crossed!

 

[s_mason16]

would love to win.

 

[Mastervivi10]

Keep it.

Contest limited to USA.... You know what the rest of the world exists, don't you?

 

[phatbuddha79]

If i win, ima sell this rig then use the money to build a 2500k.

 

[guyjones]

About time! Nice package design. Of course, it's what's on the inside that counts.

Finally, consumers have a choice...let the free market competition begin!

 

[dalauder]

It does almost exactly what I expected. I was hoping to be impressed...but at least I wasn't disappointed. This is just enough for AMD to stay in the game. It'll be great for workstations.

For gamers though...AMD really should've just dropped the K10's to 32nm and sold them at the same prices. If a Phenom II x4 can hit 4.0GHz no problem, wouldn't a 32nm one hit 4.8GHz? If I can buy a $120 Phenom II x4 that hits 4.8GHz, I'll take that over a $220 i5 and spend more on my graphics or pick up an SSD instead.

[Aionism]

Can you ban everyone who whines about the contest being limited to the USA?

 

[alyoshka]

Am getting one even if I can't get into the USA Only contest.

 

[AMD X6850]

Aside from the whining, why is it only limited to the United States?
If it is to do with shipping costs, I'd be more than happy to pay it if I end up winning the competition (depending on what the prize is).

Taxes, laws, etc. That's the government for you!

Because buying a PC in the USA and shipping it international is against the law, so therefore winning one in a contest is too.

Wait ... what?
