eyeing on this CPU for a new setup, hopefully getting the BE version, running many virtual machines in one shot

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

i got the 1055T, and pair it up with gigabyte 890GPA-UD3H motherboard, not the best board.
Forget about using stock cooling, noisy as hell, and don't bother getting a big chucky cooling when you decide to choose this gigabyte board, depending on ur casing, can be quite troublesome adjusting CPU cooling fan.
Max i get for pushing it is 3.57GHz from the stock 2.8GHz. I did it using cheap rams. Beyond this is unstable for me. Get better rams if you want to overclock over 3.5GHz mark

on the 1055T i am currently testing out using the Xigmatek Thor, plus Silverstone FM123 manually mounted on it.
I adjust the fan speed according to my liking, somewhere between 1800rpm when i am in the house and max when i am out working.
If you have a normal casing, then you will have problem like me with all this aftermarket CPU cooler. heatsink is too big in a small area.

on my 955BE i am using the Hyper N620, thinking of testing out Hyper H620 later on the 1055T or buying another new cooler

normal consumer won't even bother about how many cores the proc has, as long as it can run their basic applications.

If you are on the more technical side like me, doing things like running multiple virtual machines and running very heavy CPU and memory intensive applications and heavy programming projects are the reasons why i chose this proc at the first place. x2 can't even do half of what i need, x4 proc is just barely struggling, then the x6 is just ok. But for me i don't have the kaching to get the intel xeon or amd opteron, so i opt for this Thuban. I really wish there is a board for two thuban proc, but none
