Bulldozer Release Date Confirmed

[K1LLER HORNET]

Wonder how much it costs?

I reckon it'll be £160 for the 8120 & £200 for the 8150.

I'm sure the FX-8150 will be in between the i5-2500K and i7-2600K in terms of cost.

 

[Predicament]

Interesting..


FX-8150: base frequency of 3.6GHz, a maximum Turbo frequency of 4.2GHz

FX-8120: base frequency of 3.1GHz, a maximum Turbo frequency of 4.1 GHz

Small difference in turbo

i am wondering will 8120 95w will be available to buy or will it be same as 1055t 95w only in made builds

I am looking to upgrade my computer for more performance and I am looking for some help.

Right now my system hardaware specs are..

Asrock n68c-s motherboard
Nvidia geforce 250 gt graphics card
2x 2GB DDR3 1600 MHz hyperlink memory
Hitachi Deskstar 1TB SATA-II 32MB Cache
AMD Athlon ll x2 240 2.8GHz (using standard AMD cooling fan)
Antec High Current Gamer 520W supply

The ram is new so i have no need to replace that unless someone has any better suggestions for better performance.

My limit is £800 so if anyone can help me it will be appreciated, want to get the parts and have it up and running asap.

I would get a hex core and new GPU plus a custom CPU cooler, other then that its fine.

post in general hardware but for £800 id be thinking 2500k + a gtx 580 + ssd keeping your current psu, case and ram, however with current ram prices id be sticking another 8gb in there

if you wanted a whole new build just drop the gpu to an ati 6950 to pay for the case and psu
