Hey guys,

I've been out of the PC market for a few months, I currently have a Sandybridge setup, Whats this bulldozer I keep hearing about?

AMD's new lineup of processors , due to finally come out this week!

Very interested to see how it performs on price and speed compared to SB.

hmmm, thank you for the prompt reply, I'll keep an eye out for the reviews, tho I dont think I will need to upgrade the I5 just yet.. but you never know..

yeh just wait for now.

Bulldozer would not be an upgrade from an i5 anyway!

Yea, wait for benchmarks. If the leaked ones are anything to go by I'm utterly disappointed

with no benchmarks around for bulldozer AND not knowing which i5 the OP has how can you possibly say this?

This (although recent news may prove otherwise).

if you have sandy bridge you don't need to worry about BD (unless you're just interested for the sake of it). you're current processor is at minimum a 2300 which is pretty damn good (probably better for most things than even the high end BD).
