Hope it will do 5 Ghz on good air coolers with ease. Thanks Ishu for the links.

(i was just going to share this here, after noticing this terrific news on the feeds :p)

Let's see how the market responds to AMD...and how Intel fights back...

Looks like AMD is PITA for Intel and nVidia, both! :p

market believes more on ads (literally, for the non-techies/geeks).

talking about India, Bulldozer beats Core i7 2600k hands down but without ads, FAIL.
but if AMD can provide a good promo & some good ads, even if bulldozer looses to Intel SB, it'll be a success.

@ max_snyper - thanks for the BD cpu prices ;-)

A speed of 8.4 Ghz is great but it's not practical for everybody and most of the enthusiasts users at the same as most of them will either use 3rd party air cpu coolr or some luquid solution ( not LN2 ) - so I'm more interested to see how fair BD cpus can do with good Air Cpu cooler and with 3rd party ready to use liquid cooling kits ;-)

BMG ftw!!
8.4GHz!!!! Its like they have done teh impossible.
Clock speed wise they can easily beat Intel SB cpus.

Yes, and that's why many people don't even think of AMD processors while building their CPU.

^^It shows the potential these BD chips have.....not everybody is gonna buy amd pc...its just the ppl like us who know there is a world apart from intel.
I would really like to know how these prices are goin to translate into Indian rupees...lately rupee is on the weaker scale so expect the prices to be on the upside...even more than sb 2600k for the top end BD.

^^ I think we will see some some less powerful and cheap BD cpus later in the Q1/Q2 of next year but AMD still have to sell their good performing Phenom II cpus which will be either EOLed or get a price drop - so for customers it will be a win win situation ;-)

Oh well that is a relief for me because I was thinking that more powerful processors will be released in next quarter.
