I hope Piledriver improves upon Bulldozer as much as Phenom II improved upon the original Phenom. It was a good affordable CPU, in fact thanks to core unlocking it's the best processor in price vs performance I had ever bought :biggrin:
I miss the days of being able to build a half-decent AMD rig, for significantly less money than an Intel-based one.
But, for PD to be of any interest to me, they'd have to increase IPC to Phenom II-parity, reduce power consumption by about 30%, or a compromise between the two.
