The top listed performance/price AMD processor is known to be buggy, which is why it's so cheap.
People that are buying the high-end systems are usually people who play PC games competitively. Intel is also making compilers that are optimized for their processors. In addition they are creating tools for optimizing parallel processing. I don't see AMD doing that. If they don't they won't be able to compete in the high-end desktop market.
- queensnake 17y agoReally, are you talking about the B2 version, something wrong with the cache? Because I bought my 9750 a year ago August (it had the lowest power consumption at an acceptable speed) and it was a B3 even then. So, if that's what you're referring to, I doubt those are still in the channel. Come to think of it I think they renamed the fixed ones (the ..50) so that there was no risk of confusion.
