Even for servers, I dont see how BD is a win.
16 core server chips, they could have shrunk Magny Cours and improved clockspeed a few hundred Mhz or added 4 more K10 cores.
They should have added Llano 3-5% improvements plus 32nm shrink on X6, add in 200-300 Mhz headroom and called it a day.
Anyone saying Bulldozer isn't as bad as Phenom I launch needs to stop drinking Kool-Aid and check facts unfortunately.
I'm not saying it isnt fun to OC though, but other than that there is no logical reason to buy the product.
