It's gonna be my next rig, but guess I have no luck.

I think we will have to buy it from system integrators.

It could bad translation, but the article claims it's a low voltage FX.

You don't think stock Vcore @ 1.30v is low? :)

Well you could try Google's Chinese Simplified BETA, but I prefer Babelfish's Chinese Simp.

My, oh my....and to think the charge cards just recovered from purchasing the new rig...this will be *essential* to getting the best clocks.

i seen as high as 3.24 ghz
I might be able to get some few days before it hit retail:)

Yeah, lets see how many reach 3ghz on stock air, with stock sink out of 100 user results. if they all did that they wouldn't be clocked at 2600mhz would they?

Heheheh.

Iam really not impressed with the FX-60, because overclocks are not guarenteed. 2600mhz is pretty pathetic, no doubt the price of this chip will be stupidly high.

Look at it this way. The first A64's over 2 years ago, the Clawhammer, started at 2.0Ghz and 2.2Ghz for the 3200+ and 3400+. Now in 2 years, AMD have added 200mhz at the most for a non FX CPU, which IMO is pathetic, and a FX-57 costs a stupid amount of money for what it is.

Why Are CPU's so expensive?

mh, well, maybe amd wants to slow down the development of their cpu's clock. as intel isn't able to compete with amd's cpus right now, amd doesn't want to release an even faster cpu than the fx-60.
this results in more different cpus in production and more cpus to sell and, of course, to have more time developing future cpus.

Do you realize what is wrong with that statement?

AMD doesn't ship XP-90s and XP-120s with their CPUs now do they? Obviously you can get much better scores with better than stock cooling. AMD tests them at extremely high temperatures in comparison to what we find "suitable" because they want to make sure that even those living in africa or near the equator could still use the CPU just fine. There are a lot of things to take into consideration and that is why a lot of CPUs overclock much more than they are rated at.

Nothing is wrong with the statement. I said 'stock air', so that means what comes with the CPU. Besides i thought FX CPU's came with a much beefier sink anyways, it's certanly a lot better than a stock heatsink.

They won't all do 3ghz on stock volts, because they wouldn't be 400mhz slower like i said.:rolleyes:

Sure they will will probly overclock a bit more than a good opteron, but IMO, thats still pretty unimpressive.

LOL now now Tim, lets not get all sarcastic.

Aussie, it was announced quite a while ago that the FX-60 will be a dual core...the surprising thing is how well it clocks for a dual core proc.

I wonder why they used at divider on the mem, when its a FX CPU....they could go x12

So what are the main differences between the FX60 and an AMD X2 4800, apart from clock speed and unlocked multiplier?

I believe we saw that when the X2s came out...mem bandwith (and hence 05 score) is higher with divider + mem at cas 2 instead of 1:1 and mem at cas 2.5.

The FX has better silicon. So it usually clocks better. And having better silicon is not a small thing either, while most san diego's out there get around 2.7-2.8ghz the FX57 hits around 3.2.

And better memory controller.

you mean fx59 and thats the successor to the fx57 and will be 3GHz stock! Of course I hope it overclocks to like 3.5GHz on air!
12-14-2005, 11:43 PM
guess2098

from 8 FX60 only 3 can do 3G air stable, 4 2.9G and 1 2.8G

coolaler keeps the best one... 2nd and 3rd are in my hand now
12-14-2005, 11:58 PM
MaxxxRacer

guess, well then 77.78% of ur samples are doing 2.9ghz or better.. pretty dam good to me on air cooling. I can count the number of X2's on one hand that can do that.

today i sold my 2.9G 170 for 500 by mistake.... !!! and still ppl pm me so expensive.... i guess they don't undersatnd how hard for 2.9G +

Always

Whattt?? 500$ what happened? currency problem?

EDITED: realized it was the 2,9 170 opteron

So, the launch date is still Jan 10th? But I'm hoping that the inq is wrong. If it is released earlier, there is still hope for me to get it.

All times are GMT -8. The time now is 12:12 AM.
