Re: AMD Phenom X3 8750: tri-core Phenom to challenge Intel's Core 2 Duo?
boy this is such a great analogy to how 3dfx got trounced by Nvidia and everyone was wishing the Voodoo 5 6000 would come and save the day..

AMD needs their 45nm chips ASAP. That's the only way clock speeds are going to be raised to 3Ghz+ and these chips will come with a slew of other enhancements.

Re: AMD Phenom X3 8750: tri-core Phenom to challenge Intel's Core 2 Duo?
Something not quite right here..
USA Pricing - (Phenom X3 prices (1000) units) Phenom X3 8750 (2.40 GHz) $197 (Using XE.com this is £99.81) Phenom X3 8650 (2.30 GHz) $167 (Using XE.com this is £84.61) Phenom X3 8450 (2.10 GHz) $146 (Using XE.com this is £73.96) Got this list from THG it doesnt quote a source for the figures. This doesnt really match with the prices of thoose models available from Scan, Komplett in the UK.. Phenom X3 8750 (2.40 GHz) £128.08 (Scan) Phenom X3 8650 (2.30 GHz) £109.26 (Scan) Phenom X3 8450 (2.10 GHz) £95.75 (Scan) If the UK pricing was closer the USA pricing im sure these would be selling like hot cakes. Maybe its just the usual post-launch price hike before the price settles back down. |
