"If it doesn't beat SB AMD is going out of business."
No offense if anyone here made this claim, but I cringe whenever someone states something so ridiculous.

I wish I could say I expect more out of Bulldozer...but 8.4 Ghz is too exciting right now XD
Indeed. First the assumption was that it wouldn't clock high, now that it is proven that it does, some folks (unfortunately) are finding reason to still be disappointed. Oh, well.
