SlashGear - AMD‘s flagship 5.0 GHz processor, the AMD FX-9560, has gone on sale, though the chip won’t be available as a standalone part for some time. The company will instead offer the new processor through various PC builders, including iBUYPOWER and Maingear, for those who want to be able to tell their friends they have the first commercially-available 5GHz chip.
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.
