There's said to be two chips in the pipeline, the FX-80 at 4Ghz and the FX-82 at 4.4GHz. The FX-80 at stock out performs a 5.0GHz Kentsfield.

The Deneb core apparently has
a multiplyer of up to 25x!

This image was spotted on a UK computer shop website, maybe a hint
of the arrival of the Phenom FX?

Update 27/8/08

Reviewage were sent the following image, which appears to be AMD's advertising guidelines for the new FX chips.

Oh. Em. Gee. Okay I don't know this source but I really don't think this is BS. Why? Because pretty much the exact same thing happened when Core2 was announced. Everyone called BS and said it was too good to be true. Only time will tell though. I hope AMD lives up to he hype. God knows they need it.

If AMD gets back in the game and can beat Nehalem, my next processor is gonna be AMD again.

uuh. This is pure speculation. Why? Because the Phenom was supposed to be the newest and greatest and was supposed to known Intel off its feet and it didnt do shit. As a matter of fact, it fucked AMD sideways because of the errata issues considering they couldnt get past 3.2 or 3.4 in most cases. Also, kentsfield is a fucking OOOLLLDD architechture. Let me remind you the release date of Kentsfield, okay? Nov 2006, thats almost TWO YEARS AGO. So you're telling me that AMD is going to compare their CPUs to shit that came out TWO YEARS AGO?!! WTF. We all know that 2 years in the computer hardware sector is like forever... this just sounds like more AMD BS. How about we compare Intel's Nehalem to AMDs new architechture and see how it performs.

You posted it and why post it if it has so many damn holes in it? Why post something thats pure speculation and makes no rational sense? Im ripping on you because you should know better than to call it and title it the Kentsfield Killer...

Whatever dude, just reposting an article like that is lame and shows that you gave it no prior overlook at all and just based it on emotional feelings. I would have never posted it without a commentary on the article and its bias as well as perpetual inaccuracies when titled in such a manner...

Usually when you have a tech section on a site, you try to be neutral. Not biased... i see thats not the case here.

Actually its running at 1.168 and guess what? I can get 3.8 on my GPU in the winter(since im air) on 1.15 on my X3350... THis doesnt really mean anything to the arguement.

It means that it can clock just as high if not higher and is more up to date.

Of course neither your Qxxxx or the amd QC can amount to the OC and the ability of the QCX, Obviously 9.xxGHz is hard to achieve but can be done by only intel at the moment.

Other than the arguement can not really go any further than that until the new AMD QC's are released and put to the test.

AMD = Reliabilty

Intel = Short but sweet ride

How is AMD reliability while Intel is short but sweet Ride? Its been over 2 years that Intels been the performance king...

Unfortunately, clock speed doesnt really mean everything... as Intel had shown us with the Core2 chips proving that their 2.0GHZ could spank the AMD's 3.6 GHZ silly and their own 3.6 GHZ silly as well.

I've been running the same amd chip for almost 11 years, never had a problem with it.

Im pretty sure that your input means absolutely jack shit when it comes to computer hardware in general. Ex. see dadom's laptop thread.

Yeah, My input is shit because I do not know anything about it or computers in general.
