Anyhow, any news on the new AMD FX-8320/50 releases? It's soon according to rumours that have stated October 22, 2012 to October 23, 2012.

I know we are ALL eager. But man maybe your LOGO should be changed from SuperXP to SuperCharged. I would be shocked if it is NOT on the 23rd at this point. I am not sure why AMD has NOT given a date , is this the way Bulldozer was released?

Yes, I believe so. Bulldozer had rumoured release dates up until AMD made it official.

It was also rumored to have Intel-crushing performance...

Are you saying the reliability of the rumored 10/23/12 release is on the same par as rumored performance claims of Bulldozer , which came not from AMD, but hopeful AMD users as well?
I think you are definitely treading in dangerous waters if that is what you are saying. Or perhaps you enjoy playing the "class clown" role?

No, I'm just stating that rumors are nothing but rumors and can easily be wrong by a mile.

Ah, but this is the internet, and that was supposed to be true of everything on the intarwebz...until people started to lose their jobs over Facebook posts.

AMD accidentally leaked a series of slides showing the FX-8xxx CPU's would dominate the EE Nahalem CPU's in across the board in gaming. The slides were from their big quarterly marketing meeting with investors; they may not have said it to the public, but they were themselves trying to tell their investors that Bulldozer had Intel-Dominating Performance.
