- this model is a "black" version, which means that the cores are unlocked and can be easily overclocked.
7ghz and i just dont see the need for upgrade on hardware of my gaming pc.
Price
00$ i think is on this site with only 2 cores open.
One of my friends told me that his cpu was a thousand dollars my whole computer cost that much.
But for the price, the performance is great.
(1150$) new games like need for speed hot persuit all max.
Competitiveness
While they may not air cool to 4+ghz like the intel comparison of the 975 quad, they do their jobs without the 5x pricetag.
I think amd pii blows intel away for both price and performance.
