what u meant?
ddr3 can be used..

why would the RAM going to be cheaper?

because they can be widely use(Intel and AMD) and it will have massive production of DDR3, when there are many DDR3 available, price will cut down. marketing strategy.

abang

amd already support ddr3 with their year old AM3 socket now.

it was June 2009 . it was an Opteron, it was intended Socket F, it was ECC DDR2, it was intended to be server platform, very good TDP there

I was wondering when this hexacore will available in market. I see Cex selling one. But in *coming soon* mode...

Expected release should be April 26th, but to reach malaysia expect another 1 month. Sometimes i really hope AMD would just release it faster

Saw the news , it seems like the 1055T will be cost about RM999 ? wrong info maybe ?

yoongkeen said can order by this week or next week

btw guys...if playing games...usually how many cores will be used ??
example battlefield bad company 2

duo core , I3 would be more than enough , but only GTA4 and Supreme Commander use 4 cores
6 cores , not sure maybe you can have a look at some 980x game benchmark

It depends on the game. Usually most games nowadays support dual core. But it is a wise to upgrade to Quad core. In the future, more game looks like going to quad core.

The game that support quad core, which is very famous now is GTA 4. I can feel the difference when using C2D and C2Q.

Here is the review on Dual Core VS Quad Core

http://www.overclock.net/pc-games/659536-c...re-vs-quad.html

RM999 is so expensive and it is most probably correct as it is stated to cost about USD299?

owh...hmm...faster2 X6...im cumming for X4..will be cheaper rite ??

I doubt the X6 will be anymore faster and X4's price should be quite stable already.

We shall see soon enough by the end of this month or early May.

2.8ghz true six-core design..lol..can it beat the eight virtual core of i7?..

Lets take assumption x4 920 2.8 ghz is 3000 points , so if x6 = 4500 points.But non of application make use of 6 cores.So it just same as 4 cores.

Try and find a benchmark on Intel Core i7 980X - 3.33GHz vs Core i7 975 Extreme - 3.33GHz
You'll see a barely 10% of most of the program make use of 6 cores.But some said future proof but when future comes making use of 6 cores , the price would be far more cheaper and 8 cores will be out.

i'm looking forward to pair this X6 BE with 890FX/SB850...

i read somemore SB850 still have performance issues as with SB750.. esp when power management/C&Q turned on
