I'd rather have a C3 stepping Athlon II, something poor college students could afford. :P

I'd like to see benchmarks 1st, but if I can afford it(not likely as a college student), and it performs well, sure I'll upgrade.

It's coming stock clocked at 2.8GHz, probably with a TDP of 125W.

These chips are why I went 550 BE x2 for now. Unlocked it for free x4 so I wasn't downgrading from my 940BE.

Would even be more interesting to see if they'll be releasing x4's, x5's, x3's and x2's cut from the same dies, and if they'll be unlockable.

Imagine having an x6 for an x2 price?

If it's not possible, I'll be psyched to try them and use em...

I think the lowest clock AMD will go for is 3ghz. 4ghz is almost a standard now... Unless they pull a PH I thing again.

Of course, I plan on buying at least one of all of AMD's offerings...I guess I'll do a build a new one and give the old one to my parents system and then take back my old ones once I give them something better.
