So its better than a Qx9550?? Where did they get Phenom X2's and X3's???

Simulated.

Must've disabled one or two of the cores.

Is that what that means? Man AMD is gonna have a rough launch with those X2's and X3's then :(

No Q9450 comparison eh? :(

The simulated X2's and X3's are a poor performing bunch.

But if there as cheap as potato chips ~$50 lol, count me in :D

How come they say MHz, not GHz?

Wow.... that nice oc cpu...:banghead: Izit at stock cooling?

jbizzlerHow come they say MHz, not GHz?

Because for instance 3500MHz is roughly 3.5GHz. 2500MHz is roughly 2.5GHz, etc, etc.

Well, the QX9650 says 3.000 MHz, when I assume it should be 3.000 GHz.

jbizzlerWell, the QX9650 says 3.000 MHz, when I assume it should be 3.000 GHz.

Maybe they downclocked it lol im still hoping for a Q2200 :rolleyes:

Well, we can clearly see where the extra 4 threads brought by HyperThreading make a difference.

jbizzlerWell, the QX9650 says 3.000 MHz, when I assume it should be 3.000 GHz.

3000MHz is 3GHz.

WeerWell, we can clearly see where the extra 4 threads brought by HyperThreading make a difference.

Uh I thought they were bringing back hyperthreading with nehlam, not penryn.

:( I just want my Q9450... too impatient.

phenom just got raped ... no hope ..

[I.R.A]_FBiphenom just got raped ... no hope ..

brutally at that.. I really dont think AMD can survive much longer if they dont step up and release some good chips :( I cant even imagine how high intels prices would go if there wasnt a competitor

Duxx:( I just want my Q9450... too impatient.

As do I.

ShadowFoldbrutally at that.. I really dont think AMD can survive much longer if they dont step up and release some good chips :( I cant even imagine how high intels prices would go if there wasnt a competitor

They would produce a new chip every 5 years for 1000$. :shadedshu
hah

look at how single core cpu performs in World in Conflict, lol

CrAsHnBuRnXp3000MHz is 3GHz.

Yeah, but it doesn't say 3000, it says 3.000, i.e. 3 with 3 significant zeroes following the decimal point.

I know it doesn't matter, but I think it's just kind of funny to think of any processor released within the last decade would operate at only 3 MHz. maybe those are just really difficult-to-see commas.

It' so odd the way the CPU market is going. Before we're used to the performance one new core gives us, we get another crazy performance boost. I find myself wishing it would slow down soon. :laugh:

Maybe that's because they're German - they write 3 thousand as 3.000 and 3 point zero as 3,0. French do this as well as a few other Eu countries.

Seems my 3800+ is aging...

Comma is a deciamal seperator.
Most English-speaking countries use a period tho, no idea why.

however ISO standards recommend the use of comma instead of points also in English speaking countries

What's the point?! Who cares!

We use full stops here :laugh:
