The Joker disagreesâ„¢

What?

I don't disagree, It doesn't mean I am not gonna end up buying a FX8170 as soon as it becomes available.
Its got nothing to do with benchmarks for me, I already own 4 maxed out Sandy Bridge rigs, If I wanna benchmark I'll use those. I am only buying it for one reason and one reason alone, to pop into my Asus Crosshair V and use it for gaming.
 
BD would be an awesome chip... at say, just above their old flagship prices?

average performance/price is just too small right now.

BD still has potential

alot of people go immediatly for the fact that it didn't live up to marketing hype

give the architecture a chance to mature and develop further before writing it off entirely

i'm not saying it'll beat intel but who knows, might give em a go.
 
It does. But Bulldozer itself is rubbish. Maybe piledriver wi be a little better with thr aid of not using Global foundries anymore.
