This giveaway contest appeared relatively recently. AMD knows the actual performance of FX line and where it can price it.

BTW when Zambezi launches (X8/X6/X4) ,Thubans will go down in price immediately. So even if 8150 is priced somewhat below 260$ ,which I doubt, relative perf/$ ratio will still remain the same. You will have to pay 36+% more for X8 Zambezi to allegedly get approximately the same performance as 1100T and this is what many "sources" with the "ES" are indicating. This is illogical.
if the x4 BD costs close to or more than an x6, it should show a very scary sign of how much of a single threaded monster BD will be.
