    Pricing of AMD's upcoming Piledriver-based "Vishera" FX-series processors have hit the web. These prices aren't official though, they are the pre-order prices from a store named BLT. BLT...

    agree. If will exceed my X6 @ 3,9 GHz then I'm sold.

    $250+... ridiculous. AMD really aren't aiming for competitive prices. They're hoping big numbers sell. Most people don't know clock speed and number of cores don't mean squat.

    I'm just hoping that the price reflects the actual performance in a good way. Time to upgrade my machine!

    so based on price... the performance is between an i7 and an i5?

    let's hope so.

    Or, maybe AMD is trying to cover the cost of R&D, production, shipping, etc.....

    these chip have to be real good for those prices, and not the 10-15% improvement over BD. Reviews should be out soon.

    regardless of performance, AMD has to cover costs and make a profit....

    You guys are trying to gauge the price by the expected performance....but the performance makes little difference to the price. Even if they perform closer to the Athlon64 X2 5600....AMD still has to cover their expenses. Can't sell at a loss just because the performance sucks.

    Actually the performance makes most if not all of the difference. People don´t give a crap about the expenses a company has to incur to make their products. People only care about the features, performance and price of the products a company offers. So if the performance is weak AMD will just have to sell their CPUs at a loss or leave them on the shelves gaining dust...

    I just hope they make competitive CPUs this time because Intel really needs some competition although i have to agree with the other opinions saying that the CPUs seem expensive, just like when Bulldozer CPUs were released...

    Zambezi needs a 250-300 MHz boost over Vishera to beat it.
    4.5 GHz Vishera = 4.8 GHz Zambezi
