TechRadar - Last month saw AMD finally unleash the latest update to its Bulldozer CPU technology, codenamed Piledriver.
The first chip we had in the labs was, somewhat inevitably, the top-spec, eight-core AMD FX-8350. And well received it was too. But by virtue of only being a little cheaper than the excellent Intel i5-3570K, it was almost pricing itself out of the market.
In September AMD will be re-released three “New” FX processors, including two models of 95W TDP, while also lowering the price of some FX processors, such as FX-9590, the price will be reduced from US$299.99, a decline of over 20%. Where as the FX-6300 will be priced from $135 to about $119.
