I doubt it. Plenty out there are willing to pay for 990X, so 3960X is not too much to ask for that particular niche segment.

I doubt their is plenty. They would have to be die hard intel fanboys. Who have no brains what so ever.
Here is the latest "leaked benchmarks" I have seen. As always, take it with a grain of salt. But it does compare the 2600k vs fx8150. For whatever it's worth, they are pretty close. We'll know for sure soon I hope.

here's a bombshell for you...
i reckon that BD will ONLY be on par with the 2500K, and cost around the same price/GHz.
i feel i may be very dissapointed tomorrow, when disclosures are lifted, and reviews are finally revealed.
4hrs to go until then, and alot of coffee to be consumed
...i just hope i am wrong for once !!!

Yeah im having same thoughts as you. Ordering components for my lan rig tonight, so it would be nice to know how well the BD will do. The plan is to get the 2500k. Celebrating with whiskey while i put on last coats of paint on my cabinets

you can buy BD is the EU as of the 12th (tomorrow), so my guess is that the NDAs expire then too
i think that there is be a myriad of reviews to choose from as of 0000hrs:12.10.11 (<3hrs time)

There has been a leaked review floating around for a couple of days that has been posted on other sites but no one knows how legit it is due to NDA and no one being able to confirm or deny.

A few people on Aria have posted some other leaked charts that how the same level of performance though. I have also seen some leaked prices somewhere but can't remember where or how much they were.

Bulldozer can't compete against SB-E, Bulldozer can't even compete with SB apart for price/performance thats if all the leaks are legit that is.
Battle over, DING DING DING
SB-E WINS!!! Yay
Im going SB-E anyways whenever SR-3 comes out
Newegg has listed the Asus Crossfire V as out of stock for over a week. It's unusual. Possible reasons:
1. Problems with that board?
2. Getting version that is Bios flashed for Bulldozer out of the box?
3. Holding on to stock for the day Bulldozer is released?
4. Pure coincidence.
Thoughts?

I wouldn't have thought they would hold it back for number 2 because you can just download the BIOS and do it your self. It's on sale in the UK right now and has been all week as far as I know.
I'd say coincidence or they oversold on preorders and there has been a delay in new stock or something.

The leaks are looking.... not so good.
I hope it's better than those, and I hope it shows up at midnight on a certain youtube channel

Im sure they will get one out after a while, but it will probably be a CPU/TDP limit. Damm, where are those benches?

I think we are all up on our toes ready for midnight
9 out of 10 leaks are usually fake anyway so I wouldn't count on them.
