What's their source? They have nothing in the "article" outside of the title.

I look forward to another thread on BD if it does not happen. The goal we should all strive for it a BD thread a day.

But i hope it does come out finally. Even though i stated in another thread it is too late I did upgrade to a 990X chipset so i could upgrade it is worth it.

Why do we need another thread that has no direct, published, AMD source?

Buy one of these....

Anyways i hope this thing is competitive, would be awesome if it could at least beat a 2500k.

Im assuming that Intel will cut prices on their "overpriced" line of Sandy Bridge CPUs in response to this launch. Would that be a fair assumption? I've been thinking about buying a Sandy Bridge CPU for a long time now and I guess I never really needed too. Just always wanted to. But the high prices kept me back. Its $150 for a crummy i3-2125 then I gotta buy a $100 motherboard to go with it. That is $250 which I could have spent on a PlayStation 3. So I have something a little faster than my aging Pentium Dual-Core E6300. I guess the only market that exists at this point in time for more advanced technology is hardcore gamers and what not.

Anyway, I really hope this drives the prices down.

Seeing how the i5 2500k can be found for $150 at MC, I don't think its valid to classify Sandy Bridges as being overpriced. You are getting 980x gaming performance for ~$200.

Also, all pricing is relative. Bulldozer has to really do well for Intel to need to drop prices. As long as there nothing that can beat Intel at their price points, they are not overpriced.
