LoL at Troll face ... Yes we all really do want to know what it will do against
the 2600k specially how it will deal with multi-threading and even just stand
up to intels core architecture.

O well i guess i may as well wait for intel's 3d cpu's.

They delay it so long and still they are behind. Granted they are no longer two generations behind though. If this is true very disappointing.

That game benchie is scary

I will wait for this though rather http://www.windowsfordevices.com/c/a/News/Intel-launches-3Dready-Sandy-Bridge-processors/

My q9550 and i7 920 are still performing, the q9550 needs to go but it can hang on another 3 months.

It seems they are saying it might improve after some BIOS updates and OS patches, but let's wait and see. AFAIK the real reviews will start to appear in about 3 days or so.
 
/facepalm
Like on those game benches and Unigene.... why oh why is AA and AF on?? If you want a 100% CPU limited game benchmark you go to lowest res and lowest settings. Putting AA/AF on makes me think there is some BS going on. Not to mention some anomolies - the reviewer claims that Zambezi is slower than Thuban... Really? AMD is releasing chips that are slower than the previous gen?

More lolz in the conclusion - "AMD boards wont be cheaper cause of the power required" Say whaaaaaat?? The boards are already out, and are already way cheaper!

Just chill, and wait for Wednesday afternoon

A teaser to tide you guys over for the next two days:
