Re-establishes AMD as a competitor in the $150+ market, Strong multi-threaded performance in certain tests compared to dual-core alternatives.
When I said "certain" tests, I meant it—triple-core products are not a guaranteed win over Intels Core 2 Duo, Pricing on certain models make them a bad deal.
Its hard to put a definitive label on AMDs triple-core Toliman. The Phenom X3 series re-establishes AMDs presence in the $150-$200 price point, and the companys decision to fight Intels dual cores with three of its own is not without merit. Althou...
Abstract: Win MSI VGA, Motherboard, Laptop in this Overclocking Contest! The history of the alternative choice:Advanced Micro Devices, or AMD as we know, has been around for quite some time now. In the early personal computer era, Intel had more than one compet...
Pour tout vous dire, le fait le plus marquant de ce lancement nÂest pas vraiment de savoir si les processeurs dÂAMD sont devant ceux dÂIntel. Nos attentes étaient autres, plus basiques. Il sÂagissait avant tout de voir si, six mois après un lancement...

Decent overclock (3GHz should be attainable), No TLB error, Unlocked multiplier, Estimated price of around 2.000DKK,
Q6600 for pretty much the same price, Requires serious cooling
The success of the 9850 processor depends greatly on its price range. Phenom 9750 is priced at around 1.500DKK, a quick check on edbpriser.dk reveals (as of this writing). Therefore, my guess is that the price will be slightly under 2.000DKK, which is...
Nearly six months after the launch of its ill-fated Phenom 9500 and 9600, AMD has rectified TLB erratum 298 and provided a welcome addition to the Phenom X4 range, the Phenom X4 9850 BE. The problem facing AMD today is, how does the troubled semicondu...
The AMD Phenom X4 9850 Quad Core CPU looks like it is well on its way in the to being an excellent choice for gamers and computer enthusiasts due to being approximately half the price of a comparable Intel CPU and being the quickest AMD Phenom commerc...
Wed all feel a little better about AMDs current chips if it wasnt for the name.You call your processor Phenom and, frankly, people expect a phenomenon. When it isnt one, the sting is all the harsher. Its like finding out a guy called Steve Massi...
The new AMD Phenom X4 9850 goes beyond the original Phenom series, offering improved performance and best of all, the ability to easily upgrade for existing users of the AMD Socket AM2 platform. Although not as powerful as some of the new Intel CPUs ...
