About damn time!
nice ;)
Actually, there have been quite a few sites that have had the non-engineering CPUs. Other than the cooler and the packaging, there is not much different from the tray parts some of us have.
add some benchs and OC and is decent news
how can you in czech republic get all this stuff before rest of us? :)
you can buy Phenoms in germany right now. but the prices are very high.

I have in Czech rep. everything very very soon (mobos, cpus, gfx) ... if you know that right peoples you can get anything ...
MAFIA!!... You mean, you have a godfather... :rofl:Quote:

Too bad Phenom sucks :(
Maybe with the right price, these CPU´s become attractive ;)Quote:

they said after that manufacturers works to provide bios butQuote:
What we did today with a number of motherboards AM2 from Asus, Gigabyte and MSI based on chipsets from AMD, NVIDIA or VIA. In any case, the result was the same: black screen.

In addition, it seems that all models AM2 will not be concerned. We could not know if it was a willingness of manufacturers or to a real concern technical, but some users might find themselves behind.
This is probably AMD who want sli on there motherboards :D
You can say all you want, but the fact is the perfomance is not there. BIOS, errata, steppings.. a good Phenom, when? 2020? And for compatibility... if the perfomance is bad in AM2+ mobos, what about current AM2?
Phenom sucks.
What if you build a phenom rig with new 790fx chipset board and put some Toyo tire stickers
on the side of the case? :yepp:
Spawne says he's proven that it will give you 15mhz of more clockspeed...what if you put enough phenom stickers too and get equal performance to intel?!?:rofl:
Probably my english is not enough good and you don't understand me... :shrug:Quote:

And you want to understand me, or just defend a POS? I don´t really know ;) Phenom is good for me, at ~160€ 2,4Ghz part.
Sorry but i have seen quite a few shops that had them in stock since tuesday.Quote:

i only know a handfull of shops that got AM2+ boards in stock and they only got the Gigabyte boards.
if that's all you have to say then stay out of the tread and go please you' re self in the intel forums. Phenom is a good proc it only misses some maturing and a bit lower price 10-15%, you forgot the first hot kentucky's already?, the new 790 platform is one of the best at the moment, there will only be minimum performance difference between am2 and +, because ht3 has no additional advantages to exist on a 1s system, on the other hand a + board does have some nice headroom for the future and better powermanagement.. Knowing AMD there process will get better, not only steppings but also the matured 65nm.Quote:

I really wish ppl would stop btching about STOCK heatsinks... no one uses them and including a better one would only drive up prices.
