q9300 price wise would be a competitor against PII 920 no? The PII 940 is priced to compete with q9400.Quote:

Hard to tell there, ( I see some 4850/4870 in there) but major discrepancy to me 4gb for the AM2 and S775 (why DDR3 ?) and 3gb for the I7... too bad they didn't compare socket 775 with the same ram as the AM2 at the same speeds...
Hope MAS can shed a light here
same here in main EU. (NL)Quote:

that was also the original competition goal, price already down from early orders and available for direct delivery.
indeed not all reviews have the same base. waiting for the madshrimps review :)Quote:

Go go MAS do some translating for us plz
Yep even 150Ws, plus you also see OEM boards like HP, Dell etc with it. (4 that is).Quote:

Number of phases means nothing once you get to 4+ really, its more about quality.
How many phases do GPUs use? 8800GT is 2 phases for example...Quote:

Regardless, they will have another chip in that $250 slot that will compete with PII 920 or whatever other chip Amd puts in the $250 slot.Quote:

And some rather strange comparisons and conclusions have been made. (Like the ones saying most people run 1024x768 but still a PII wouldn't be enough for them. That's just crazy talk.)Quote:

Still I got to ready up my motherboard with over the top heat sinks, but I dont want the previous :banana::banana::banana::banana: happen to me again:shakes:
You talked about temps and overclocking. I asked how would you know?Quote:

[XC] riptide==I don't see anything wrong with that post....
Lay off means lie, spin and only positive words on behalf of AMD:up:
Keep me posted how those excellerams do mate, I'm loving every minute of my 4gb DDR3 kit, not very Oc'able but for 100 euros 1600Mhz with C9 is pretty amasingQuote:

I'll ask it straight up...again...
What is the deal with the temp sensors? Is it software or is it the hardware?
Now, somebody can answer that, or this thread can keep getting derailed and will most probably get locked and run off the page. That's what happens to 98% of them.
There is a lots of people who provide informations in this thread and discuss about PhII reviews.
There is a bunch of people who speak about i7 which is relevant for me because it's an existing product so you can compare.
There is a bunch of people who speak about i5 which is irrelevent for me because it's a far from released product.
There is a bunch of people who use word like "fanboy". I don"t know what they want :shrug:
There is one guy who speak about AMD derailing thread in order to push mod to close it.
You wouldlove for this thread to die it seems. This thread is about reviews of the new amd cpu.. Questions about sensors can be asked in one of the million other amd threads that you alleaddy derailedQuote:

Completely OT, but the Kitty in your avatar is very cute. :)
If anyone is still interested:
small review done by me: -->LINK<--
Includes apps mostly not used by anyone else. Comparing Phenom 9950 with Phenom II 940BE at exactly same settings!

stock volts, not changed ANYTHING but multi, rock solid stable after 7hours+
more to come!

been stressing at 3.8Ghz as i said small voltage increase but temps still only at 30-31C lol this is only using multiplier and volts now! there is no doubt the stock cooler wud allow you to get to here with reasonable temps!
