The only good thing that AMD ...err ATI knows how to make are their graphic cards. AMDs C50 and C30 are slower than Intel's Atom CPUs. fail again

I think some people saw those results and thought Platform only power draw. (CPU, RAM, Mobo+chipsets) They forgot that graphics were part of the package. |

So the consensus is to wait for Piledriver and Win8?
I put off upgrading for so long, I feel kind of weird right now. It's gotten easier to just wait. Maybe I'll just wait for SB-e and piledriver, run this dying rig right into the ground! |

Depending on what you do it's a good option. I know I do not need anything extra right now.

I dont recall any other processor improving its clock for clock performance with a jump to a different OS? Does anyone?

Ive decided im just going to upgrade my video card and since im already running a 990FX board, i'll just wait till Piledriver in hopes of better performance, but currently it doesn't look like my X6 1055T will be going anywhere soon.

No but I do remember when Intel debuted hyper threading windows didn't know WTF to do and was later patched with great success. Now I'm not saying that will happen with BD. But its not far fetched ether.

I'll be basing this off Tech Report (since they have a scatter plot of perf/price)
http://techreport.com/articles.x/21813/19 FX-8150 at $245 is 355% ($0.69 per percentage point) FX-8120 at $205 is 330% ($0.62 per percentage point) Core i7 2600K at $317 is 425% ($0.74 per percentage point) Core i5 2500K at $216 is 360% ($0.60 per percentage point) Looking at them in terms of price per performance, they're not that bad. However, the 8150 can by no means match the 2600K In pure overall performance (425% v. 355% = 70% difference), and is actually behind by 5% to the 2500K while being a bit more expensive ($0.69 v. $0.6). The 8120 is even worse, just add $11 and you get 30% more performance (at $0.37 per percentage point) with the 2500K. And there is still the power consumption to talk about. Core i7 2600K and i5 2500K both idles at 64W. Peak power consumption is 144W and 132W respectively. The FX-8150 has an idle power consumption at 76W and peaks at 209W. There is also a "task energy" graph for them; 8.5W and 9.9W respectively for the two Intel CPUs while it's 14.4W for the FX-8150. Comparing the 2600K with the 8150, $317:$245 means you save $72, but you end up using more power (12W more at idle, 65W more peak, 5.9W more task energy). If the 8150 and 8120 is priced at $200 and $165 respectively, then it would be $0.56 per percentage point for the 8150 and $0.50 per percentage point for the 8120. This would offset, at least, the raw performance advantages of the 2600K and 2500K respectively. Take note that those performance percentages are as "percentage points." Meaning, "behind by 5%" doesn't mean that it (8150) is 95% the performance of the 2500K (355/360 = 98.61%). And "30% more performance" is "30 percentage points more in terms of performance."
