XDR2 Ram? 150W? 2x the power of it's little brother, using 100W less? yes please

Oh damn, AMD is starting on the new series?

Right as I'm contemplating about getting a new graphics card.


Wait, XDR2? I never heard of that memory type.

It's new, XDR has been around for a while according to those charts

just wasn't enough performance increase over GDDR5 to make it worthwhile I guess

I see the FX series got to 8GHz before release, and before Intel

damn AMD, you're showing up Intel o-o

If only AMD didn't push the Bulldozer release date for desktops back another month...

The Opteron bulldozers are out, but those are only server CPU's.

I want my 8 cores god dammit, I nid to render 1080i vidyas while rendering an ocean of dynamic water.
