I'm waiting for a good time to jump on their stock, the time may be very soon if this will be released in April.
Chip will be launched Fall...but there might be performance previews simultaneously with the R6xx product launch, which is confirmed to be late April, early May.

You use that word very often looking at your posts history.However , what also surfaced it that it is far more aplicable to you rather than to the guys you were replying.Quote:

Heck, I was happy with my old AMD Athlon 3000+ winchester when I first got it long ago. I am happy with my C2D, but It just doesn't seem that huge of a jump. Neither will it feel when K8L comes out.
All this is, is to get more money from us. I rather have, instead of paying tons-o-money for K8L or Intels upcoming Quad cores, I rather spend 70 bucks on a X2 3600+ or some alternative thats cheaper.
a very very long time, even at their absolute worst. They still sell two orders of magnitude CPUs than IBM doesQuote:

the rumours are 2xAgena FX 2,9GHz == 10 000 3dmark06 cpumarks score (by w0mbat)
Gimme Kuma !!!!! :p

That may be the case with all the other guys as you mentioned, but cleary not the case with you... you make it extremely hard.Quote:

Same I say about Intels upcoming processors. Really not that justifiable. I know I am gonna keep my E6300 until Quad core becomes mandatory (or upgrade along the way to E6350, and sell my e6300 for a bit).Quote:

For every AMD Fanboy on this site sake, they better hope K8L is not anywhere close to 40% faster than everything. If it is, they can cheer the win, but their Wallets and Purses will cry out in pain LOL! For the record, I made this same warning to PetNorth months before X2's launched. I was pretty close to the Launch prices.

All K10 or whatever to do is be competitive and its greatness will be yelled about from the mightiest of Websites from far and wide LOL!Quote:

Example, AMD knew Athlon64 kicked booty so they showed it over a year ahead of time and at only 800MHz. Intel does the same thing BTW.
I honestly don't know what Barkie or Penny will do. I was just saying that folks hoping for some kind of sweeping victory might want to rethink their view. *IF* K10 was 15% faster, what would AMD sell it for? X2 showed they are greedy Bastards! Have we learned anything yet?
IMHO, When both are on the Market, we'll find they'll be app dependent and trading off wins. Fans will have knock-down drag-out fights over who's better. This will be a boom for Forums all over the web.
excuse me, but how much Crack have you been smoking this morning?Quote:

Intel it seems has been very forthright is what they discuss.
You are the same nn-step that said penryn was a simple shrink are you not?
45 % higher FP than conroe is penryn .
20 % higher game play at same clock as conroe.
Simply put in the majority of apps. Penryn will be 20% faster the conroe clock for clock . Something your in denial about but its well documented here at XS. Than you look at the O/C of the Intels K10 hasn't got a chance/
Its A lot like your OS you can show it but it still doesn't cut the mustard. LOL
