AMD FX-60 arriving in January

[maroon1]

THE AMD FX-60 is due out in the second week of January.

Preliminary reports are that it will be a decent overclocker, early samples went to almost 3GHz on air, with little or no tweaking. If you couple it with the new NVidia 7800/512 cards, you will be easily able to break the 15K barrier in 3DMark05.

It won't be a cheap rig, but it is something a lightly trained monkey can shatter records with.

You have to love progress.

I wish i had any pennies
But you do the fx series are overpriced, aimed at bleeding edge rigs with heavy overclocking

2k for 1 cpu?

Really?

early samples went to almost 3GHz on air, with little or no tweaking.

How do you overclock to 3ghz without twealing. Thats impressive bit of silicon
