Phenom II info leaks out, AMD hints at something

[N19h7m4r3]

I hope we get some new AM2+ mobos.

I'd love one that's similar to the Rampage Extreme/Maximus II in looks and performance

Pity the ddr3 mobos don't launch same time as Phenom 2 940

Phenom 2 920 and 940 doesnt support DDR3. Hence their AM2+ package.

But the new 925 and 945 will.

Only depends on how P2 hold against yorkfield.

If its slower c/c then theres no reason to switch, epseical when most of those who are interested already own a 775 platform.
Just Pop in a cheap Q9550 and go to 3,8ghz. High FSB is no miracle anymore with P45 and E0.

If your on a old platform then S939/AM2/775 not 45nm compatible P2 looks good. But also depends on the price, but looking at the past i think amd will grab this one.

If the are equal c/c it still depends on what you own already.

Yeah, i got DFI LPUT X38, so i'm gonna consider the alternatives of going with Q9650 upgrade or platform changing upgrade with Deneb 940, when the time comes. I don't think Q9550 cuts it for my 4 GHz clock target, and 790GX/FX boards are quite reasonably priced, so if Deneb 940's priced aggressively against Q9650, i can see myself going back with AMD this round -if the cost is around the same, and the performance is comparable, i will support the underdog.
