More info at http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/cpu/dis...rocessors.htmlBIOS updates for mainboards made by Elitegroup Computer Systems and Jetway reveal that Advanced Micro Devices may be preparing a new line of multi-core microprocessors called Phenom II X8. Based on alleged specifications of the products, the new central processing units (CPUs) will be aimed at cost-sensitive segment of the market.
So AMD might be planning 8core phenomes, I have to say this is a weak choice. AMD understands they cant compete in the $300+cpu segment, so they saturate the budget segment to compensate? There were rumors about a 10core FX but they seem to be going backwards..2012 will be make it or break it.
