New AMD Phenom's are out!
AMD Phenom II X4 955 is stock at 3.2Ghz! Easily overclocked to 3.6Ghz-3.6Ghz!
Price - $245 AMD Phenom II X4 955 I've read through this review and it looks like it's coming out with a bit of a kick. Beats some of the i7's in high graphic tests too! But data wise, the i7 is still better. But I do love the overclockablity of this CPU. I've heard the CPU hit 6.7Ghz on Liquid Helium and is easily OC'ed to 3.8Ghz on stock volts (Not sure how reliable that is - Link ) But the OCing results from this CPU are great! Here's the review - Techspot Review They overclocked the CPU to 3.6Ghz here. I haven't been on this site in a long time and there's many reason for that. One was that my password kept being changed. Found out that the saved passwords in Firefox are wrong when I changed the password ^.^'' Sorry David. But for the other reasons - How are the white screens etc? Just wondering . . . *Knocks on wood*

Nice. The black edition CPU's are nice overclockers.
We haven't had an outage here in quite a while. David has been doing some updates. |

Re: New AMD Phenom's are out!
Sad that it has twice as many cores as my 6000+ but has the same power consumption (125W)....

Yep, the X3 720 is also a great price/performance CPU.

Re: New AMD Phenom's are out!
The 720's are nice but it just seems weird for them to be better or on par with some other AMD Quads. Just . . . weird, but I'm hopfully going to make the upgrade to this sucker and maybe set up some water cooling this summer once I get the money.
Lawn cutting is great!
