Vishera 5Ghz FX-9000/8770

I was referring more to Q9650 and QX9770. I didn't see you guys complaining then. I really don't see the difference. There is a market for these chips that AMD is filling. You don't have to buy them. You can buy the 8350 just like I bought a Q9650.

Back in that day, you were paying for the unlocked multiplier and you had the fastest performing CPU on the market by a long shot. Your only getting the unlocked multiplier here, but that incentive isn't really there when their fx 8320 has the same feature but only costs 150 dollars.

The only market for these chips is Hardcore AMD fans or the ignorant who buy processors based on frequency. Not having the highest performance really kills this thing as well as the unlocked multiplier feature/silicon being found on their vastly cheaper processors.
