Im not gonna be surprised when a private person buys AMD considering its on sale almost 4free

I think AMD needs to do two things.

1) fix the TLB bug and put out new CPU's NOW. They really need to concentrate on this ASAP it dosen't make sense to keep shipping CPU's with this bug and they should instead discount these chips as faster triple core CPUs once they have new CPU's without the TLB bug.

2) Let ATI do it's thing. AMD really needs to let their graphic devision be competitive with NVidia. Ever since ATI got bought by AMD their strategy has changed for the worse and forcing these platform launches with a Graphics Card is fine when your ahead, but when you're behind you need to let the Graphics Devision do what it needs to do in order to climb back to the top, and more importantly to become profitable once again.

This isnt bad for AMD if you loook at the facts.

Fact #1: Phenom 2.3 black edition priced at $239 overclocks to 2.8-2.9 gigs. That beats the crap out of the Q6700 at $550.

Fact #2: the Acers and HPs of the world value power efficiency more than pushing more gigahertz.

Fact #3: AMD pulled in the energy efficient chips from Q2 to Q1 a good tradeoff.

I'd just love to know what's going on behind the curtains. The Phenom has been delayed one too many times and its performance is unusually low for a chip with 4 cores. The B3 revision better be worth the wait.

These 'new' AMD quads will be competing with (IF/when they are ever released) the newer Intel Penryn/Wolfdale 45nm cores with performance far superior to Phenom

I seriously hope AMD can drastically cut the power draw needed by Phenom (65nm) because at the moment Intels 45nm cores are only using a fraction (wattage) of what is needed by Phenom

As I was always expecting this!!

Keep it up!!
