^^ I don't think it's legitimate or this could be just a Engineering Sample ( this thing was posted on Aug, 11 2011 ) - better wait for couple of weeks to get a nice deal on a proper version

 

[Skud]

Fake.

I actually think Bulldozer will be bad.

Ha Finally, someone here thinks exactly as my instincts..

 

[sukesh1090]

if amd have such a high confidence in them,then i think BD won't be bad.

 

[Hustlerr]

Amd will be bad cuz its not bad but it's very late i guess.

 

[max_snyper]

The thing is it wont be best but it wont be bad either....u all can expect the performance to be near 2600k or little more.....in multithreading applications.but for end user it would be good for multimedia,solid gaming performance,and all the office apps would run just great.

 

[vaibhav23]

don't think it will get near SB-E processors but will give i7 2600k a run for its money

 

[ssb1551]

I concur with snyper & sunny10. I don't think BD was ever supposed to beat i5/i7. Its meant to give us near about performance to i5/i7 but at a lesser price. I think thats what AMD was aiming all the while - to lure more consumers.

 

[rahul2002]

^^^ i feel the same too!!! in fact they have alredy declared the successor to the bulldozer series before its release, which i think will be aimed against the ivy bridge cpus!!!!

 

[vaibhav23]

By the way is there any software or game in the market that fully utilizes 8 cores
