Knowing AMD there process will get better, not only steppings but also the matured 65nm.

btw get rid of that F1 fanboy spot, he sucks bigtime.

As I already said, is good... at 160€ pricepoint, and for cold winter´s days. And I want a C2D killer NOW, when Phenom matures Nehalem would be here, so absolutely no need of it. I understand your frustration regarding this, but stop attacking those who are not living in a dream with Phenom being a good product, like you ;)

BTW, I don´t want to get rid of it, who the hell you think you are to tell me what avatar should I use? :shrug: :lol:

i think you are the one that is frustrated, for sure with you're fanboy avatar

if you want to make a comment make a decent one, not one full of rubbish

1 thread, 4 posts that have 0 added value. Idiots that believe that nehalem will arrive first for desktop. And yes hype it, why not, because for once in 6 years intel made a decent proc for desktop will they make another one?

I will try first with ASUS M2N-SLi, then onto MSi 790X and finally 790FX.

Waiting for delivery now.

Seriously, you´re SO desesperate? :rofl:

I don´t really care, keep using Phenom, is better for AMD. They should say thanks to fanboys like you.

any updates ?

Syn.

lol i remember when i bought mine X2 4800+ from OcUK for £430 now Phenom 9500 is out for £170. What difference competition makes eh?

Still i wont buy it because if i was to buy a CPU it would have to have higher Ghz value then the current one or otherwise it does not feel like an upgrade.

It 'aint news here, I've had one for a while but no DIMMs and now that I have RAM I get BSOD on bootup with ATi card installed and only VGA mode which sucks completely. The AM2 Sapphire board I have doesn't boot with 9500 (black screen) and the MSI board gives only VGA mode so still waiting.

OBR do you have the MSI 790FX board you can test? I'd like to see if it's just mine which is failing bootup with the X4 9500.

At what voltage?
11-26-2007, 11:04 AM

with Phenom voltage options are descreased ... only 0.1V + to CPU, i tested every voltage options in BIOS and mobo is not stable with stable FSB then 220, is not stable even i lower multi of cpu - that is strange, i am sure this is a memory related issue ...

If HTT it is not stable@220Mhz even after you lower CPU multi to below 11,it for sure is not the CPU.It could be flaky BIOS(issues with memory dividers).BIOS support for Phenom is terrible at the moment :(

Yeah I have BIOS issues too. Many of the options changed in BIOS don't make a difference in Windows. :(
