any news of the new windows update for hot fix for AMD bulldozer chipset? I mean re-release, as the previous update was pulled back by Microsoft. sad.gif

Any way, Pile Driver is the next model to come right? When? T_T

Oh, Microsoft said the update is scheduled in January next year.
Piledriver will be the next generation processor core architecture. smile.gif
The first to use the architecture is APU.
High end models, FX series is in Q3 2012.

what do u mean by this/?

I checked.....is yours the version 3.1 or the version 1.x?

Version 3.1 supports AM3+ processors

yeah i use 3.1 version. and yeah, sure can support AM3+ but is that means can support AMD Bulldozer as well?
