Looks into magic crystal ball.

Sorry nothing but rumours.

i realise most of it is rumours but if anyone has heard or seen anything useful it would be nice to hear

A pair of £500 FX62's which for single threaded applications (most games) will only just be a little faster than a £114 1.83Ghz Core 2. Hmm let me thing about that.

agreed for games that are out now then fair enough it wont be much faster but for the multi threaded games that are being released such as Crysis then surely two X2 5000+ will be comaprable if not better then the X6800?
