At a 50% or less loss profits… We are all technologies suckers do not fall into this trap wait on a reasonable price unless you are Donald Trump …
Ok let me make this easier for everyone here whether or not you should buy this product... here's a bit of statistics... AMD's best 1090T is 1/5 of Intel 980X's price and 3-4/5 of Intel 980X's performance when it comes to gaming at least. I think the choice is quite obvious. Some of you may call me an AMD fan boy but am not. I am an impartial viewer and in fact, I prefer Intel myself, because they make chips with better quality and stability. But I think AMD has won this time.
Say what you like about AMD's offerings, I'm not entirely convinced that an extra $600-$700 for Intel's equivalent chips is worth it.
I'm a freelance designer so I need as much bang for my buck as I can get, I can ALMOST build two Phenom based boxes for the price of this CPU, no contest really.
Using backburner or real-clustering that gives me 12 cores to render with.
I'm a big proponent of Intel, but I really dont believe this is going to bring me any advantage over AMDs offerings for my usage.
999$ has been the price of all of intels top cpu's over the years, back in 2003-04 a quad core would have cost 999$. That and by this point the cpu's will run at the fastest speed possible, the addition of extra cores is to conpensate for lack of speed which as far as I know not many Amd cpu's will go past 4.5ghz without failing.
@Cactaceae33 , Wikipedia , AMD Bulldozer cores coming out soon ( 8 cores CPU ) , and Intel will get 8 core CPU latter , after AMD ... btw AMD Bulldozer is building platform for upcoming AMD CPU's wich will be better & cheaper than Intel i7 , thus wiping Intel of market until they come up with something new.
Multi threading just means you can multi task more but does not help when playing games. Same thing with cores. Only the processor speed and what kind of video card you have will determine better gaming performance.
@george3dmax Well for any game that has some or alot of micro management in it, the extra threads will help and the extra cores will help with the effects and physics. Games in the future will slowly start using cores and threads for more and more things in a game with the graphics being the main one, but for now only some things in a game will be affected by the extra cores and threads. When in doubt go for the PC with more threads and cores.
Why are they making tiny increases in processors? There was the single core, then the two core, then the three core? Why wasn't it the four core? The next one should be the 8 core, not the 6 core. I'm waiting for the 32 core so that they can dedicate 8 of the cores for video processing. That should make for some dynamite graphics.
@hammertime346 Its like with anything. They SLOWLY introduce tech advancements in order to maximise their profits. Its no use introducing the ultimate PC thats worth $1,000,000 because no one will buy it except for the ultra rich. Instead introduce reasonaly priced PCs over time that will eventually add up to $1,000,000 in revenue. The premiss is that they will make more money over time than all at once.
you guys kind of over exaggerate this product. What you fail to understand is that its actually 2 times faster than an i7 920. And i mean EXACTLY 2 TIMES FASTER.
this i7 980 extreme isnt "a little" faster, its 2 times faster as most new cpus that come out are. AMD or Intel usually make new cpus but are only a bit faster than the previous ones. Thats not the case here.
thus you end up with this price, which i think sucks. $700 is reasonable though...
i7-hex-core is def impressive. intel is the leader in the cpu industry, so basically their top-notch chip is the best in the world - and they know it. on the marketing side, they will always price their top-notch chip at 1 grand. tech industry is in constant motion, best off sticking with an $300 i7-quad-core for now, and watch the 6-core decrease in price and they'll name a 12-physical-core chip at 1 grand as their "top notch chip" again. all marketing tricks.
Go for the basic I7 like the 920 or 930 and a basic card from Nvidia. Then spend that saved money on water cooling and a big power supply. For gamers you won't be disappointed. See my videos for water cooling tips.
It's difficult to imagine a game seriously using and recommending a six core processor, how much processing does a game need? But then again, a lot more six and eight core processors are coming, better prices also, and everytime we say something is impossible or will never happen in technology.....
I guess a game like that would run badly on consoles then? It's also tough since games keep getting more expensive and releasing games on consoles helps them make enough money.
Ehmm shud i buy 980x yeh its fucking expensive like a new pc but wth so shud i buy six core 980x or 975 quad , im where confused their about the same price and my rig is going to be asus rampage 3, evga geforce gtx 280 and im going to buy a new one to christmas for sli, 12gb RAM , what do u Think?
Who cares!! A i7 980x CPU that price $999 will end up to $ 200-100 in 2020's (maybe). Besides, it is complete waste of money if you not using it for rendering heavy graphics and just only do simple Office Word programs.
I can afford it!!! becuase my work income 1,300pound just every 1 week!!! load money but my lever 3 and high.. i cant tell u my jobs !!! :P i see some peopel cant afford it core i7 980x becuase they are too lazy work, plub,girl, bah bahbah that is really bored looool i am just home to work then work to home that it no girl no plub no club. then everyday work i got some peep load money like my eyes into barin pop going out shopping ! crazy stuff i love it.
Is it great? Sure. It just has an abysmal price/performance ratio. Not to mention that most normal users won't even benefit from having more threads available to them. It's a very niche product.
Intel makes lovely chips though. I'm running a 930@4Ghz and it's performing beautifully.
If I had the money I would get, 4 at quad sli GTX 480's with intel core i7 980x extreme ed, with 8gb mem 1tb harddrive, 24in tv screen, 3d vision by nvidia, errmm in a alienware area 51 desktop hardcase, with liquid cooling.

something I just realized and found quite funny; The i7 975X Extreme (the 4 core bloomfield i7) cost almost the exact same as the i7 980X Extreme. If you're going to spend that much money on a cpu (and there are legit reasons, such as an investment in a video editing rig) you might as well go with the 980X. it DOES offer 20-40% performance increases (from what I've seen) over applications that are optimized for multi threading. I still can't see spending that much, but to each his own.
lol the turbo boost frequence is weird... i got the i7 720qm and normally it has 1,6ghz and it can boost one core to 2,8ghz and the 980x can also boost only 1 core to 3,6ghz i think. i wonder when they will release some complete new processors because IBM already made some prototype which i not based on silicium and had 100ghz really interesting
To be honest. I do not think that Intel wanted this processor sold. I mean, my future pc configuration costs a bit lower than that cpu. And it has 8 gb of ddr3, amd phenom II x6 1055T and one EVGA GTS 250 800 gb wd caviar green 64 mb buffer 800 gb, ga-ma785gt-ud3h.
And seriously, that pc is pretty good, costs lower than a cpu, which I will never buy.
Also the turbo feature is useless in my opinion, because most of us and I mean gamers and people with a bit of experience, will overclock it.
You have a microwave and 'oust' in you study?... What does that say about your personal hygiene? Lol.
I joke man. You are my GOD. If i need info on anything, I go strait to your channel. If I only knew what all these numbers and letters meant. What is a 6 core 3.33ghz? Does that mean it does 3.33ghz x 6? So it gives out 20ghz in total?
@iwhitecastle Maybe if you would get a real job instead of busting your hump at Whitecastle's you wouldn't be bitching about the price. Intel gave you two more cores and left the price the SAME as the X-Edition before it. What do you want, blood? That's all I hear from you under achievers, how the world owes you a living. No wonder America is fast becoming a nation of weak cry babies. Get off your lazy ass and do something for a change Johnny burger flipper.
its a joke. calm down dont kill yourself now. am i suppose to be offended cause your making whitecastle jokes. : /
wtf are you talking about. ahhahah. i dont give a fuck about america. and please 999 aint shit. your probably a fuckin geek lookin ass bitch. that dont ever get pussy.
@iwhitecastle what do you think of this prcessor vs the Intell 6 Core ?? .AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition Thuban 3.2GHz 6 x 512KB L2 Cache 6MB L3 Cache Socket AM3 125W Six-Core Desktop Processor HDT90ZFBGRBOX for $229 on new egg ?
not impressed its a moneymaking product for intel for the ones that thinks that this is alot faster than a i7 920 not true just not the extra 700euro worth
I have a AMD AM3 build PC and if I wanted I could get the AMD Six Core black edition CPU for only $295.00 + free shipping. "All right, giggidy-giggidy-giggidy!"
@AndyFunny22 No they are not the same, the intel 980X 6core has more performance and cost three times as much as the AMD 1090T 6core processor.
I mostly play games on my PC and my AMD daul core Phenom II X2 processor runs games real good, but I'm thinking of getting the AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Deneb 3.4GHz for $179 instead of the new AMD 6core CPU.
@2point6x4 yeah price wise the AMD is a great choice and u get a good performance too, but for extreme performance whores intel 980x is the best choice, but as you said it costs fucking much:P
If you're a professional doing very intense CPU using work, yes they're going to buy it, they use their PC every day for very hard work, a few hundred more dollars for a PC that will be faster and fantastic for years.
There is a saying for all the people who complains about prizes."If you have to ask, you can't afford" But I think that's a little bit mean. So I like this better "If you want quality, you have to pay for it." Let's face it, Intel's architecture is superior to AMD. AMD fans bubbles are always bursts by this fact all the time. AMD is competitive 'cause of their CPU prizes. TIK! TOK!
Not impressed with the turbo option.Should be a hell of a lot faster on turbo mode not much of a difference.Seems like a waste of a selling point. Intel, like stated below lower the price we are not Oprah. IF intel really wanted to sell this cpu the price would be lower so others can afford it.Besides like also stated you can build an entire system for the price of this cpu
@Chilll07 what do you think of this prcessor vs the Intell 6 Core ?? .AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Black Edition Thuban 3.2GHz 6 x 512KB L2 Cache 6MB L3 Cache Socket AM3 125W Six-Core Desktop Processor HDT90ZFBGRBOX for $229 on new egg ?
@Chilll07 Turbo mode tunes it up to a faster yet stable speed, Intel's software and bios can bring it up higher but they recommend getting better cooling, and for the price of a system compared to this cpu it would not even touch the performance this cpu has alone, you would be able to get it up to 5ghz without any problems, heck my core 2 duo ran alot hotter than my new i7 920! the stock cooler on the i7 allowed me to touch 4ghz but could easily get up to 5 with the help of extra cooling.
$999, Da fuck..Who does Intel think they are selling their products too? Fucking Oprah? You can build a complete rig with good specs with that money...
@G1Jetscream yes they are, people who need it for business and making movies and rendering HD videos, for example, a video that takes 1 hour on a i7 920 (£200) would take about 5 minutes on this (I'm not exaggerating).
@G1Jetscream well its takes alot of money to make them, and they deserve to profet of there hard work. i think its takes like 650 bucks to make it what i heard. so you can wait it out till its old school or you can buy it now for 1000 dollars....
@akl3g and yet the Phenom II x6 1090T 6 core processor is $300. Comparing the two, AMD's Hexa-Core processor performs slightly slower but come on about $1000.00 vs $300.00 obviously unless you really want to build the best computer or money is like air to you your going with AMD's 6 core processor.
It's an amazing core. Too bad there are better, cheaper alternatives. Such as getting an AMD hexacore, or an Intel quad with hyperthreading, and overclocking it.
@pajo50 Whats the point of a muscle car if the driver does not know how to use it? :P same thing with this lots of performance but AMD processors are not as smart as intel. I talk from experience hehe,
@SutkasFan AMD's are the best for gaming and Intel's are good for professionals making transcoding, 3D models and etc... so if you only play games just buy an AMD
HP has this cpu on their 190t, it's a little over 2k dollars but depending on how you customize it. the price is a little over my head so I'll stay with 180t =]
I recently bought an Westmere Gulftown ES Intel Core i7 980X Extreme clocked at 4.5GHz @ 215BCLK on AIR rather than the typical one that is sold at a stock 3.33GHz...
I bought it off of Ebay for only $835 Canadian dollars after S&H
@geniusjas87 Yeah thats pretty damn expensive. Although, when you buy this CPU you also make a monster system. So that price ends probably around $4000-$5000
I guess if you buy this CPU you probably also buy an GTX 480 or ATI 5970..
This has been flagged as spam show

TheMadeira2010 1 year ago
Is it great? Sure. It just has an abysmal price/performance ratio. Not to mention that most normal users won't even benefit from having more threads available to them. It's a very niche product.
Intel makes lovely chips though. I'm running a 930@4Ghz and it's performing beautifully.

something I just realized and found quite funny; The i7 975X Extreme (the 4 core bloomfield i7) cost almost the exact same as the i7 980X Extreme. If you're going to spend that much money on a cpu (and there are legit reasons, such as an investment in a video editing rig) you might as well go with the 980X. it DOES offer 20-40% performance increases (from what I've seen) over applications that are optimized for multi threading. I still can't see spending that much, but to each his own.

lol the turbo boost frequence is weird... i got the i7 720qm and normally it has 1,6ghz and it can boost one core to 2,8ghz and the 980x can also boost only 1 core to 3,6ghz i think. i wonder when they will release some complete new processors because IBM already made some prototype which i not based on silicium and had 100ghz really interesting
xxBlackpspxx 1 year ago
To be honest. I do not think that Intel wanted this processor sold. I mean, my future pc configuration costs a bit lower than that cpu. And it has 8 gb of ddr3, amd phenom II x6 1055T and one EVGA GTS 250 800 gb wd caviar green 64 mb buffer 800 gb, ga-ma785gt-ud3h.
And seriously, that pc is pretty good, costs lower than a cpu, which I will never buy.
Also the turbo feature is useless in my opinion, because most of us and I mean gamers and people with a bit of experience, will overclock it.

There is a saying for all the people who complains about prizes."If you have to ask, you can't afford" But I think that's a little bit mean. So I like this better "If you want quality, you have to pay for it." Let's face it, Intel's architecture is superior to AMD. AMD fans bubbles are always bursts by this fact all the time. AMD is competitive 'cause of their CPU prizes. TIK! TOK!

Not impressed with the turbo option.Should be a hell of a lot faster on turbo mode not much of a difference.Seems like a waste of a selling point. Intel, like stated below lower the price we are not Oprah. IF intel really wanted to sell this cpu the price would be lower so others can afford it.Besides like also stated you can build an entire system for the price of this cpu

@Chilll07 this cpu is obviously not aimed at the consumer market so why would they cheap out on it so more people can afford it?
soldierpwnage101 9 months ago
@Chilll07 Turbo mode tunes it up to a faster yet stable speed, Intel's software and bios can bring it up higher but they recommend getting better cooling, and for the price of a system compared to this cpu it would not even touch the performance this cpu has alone, you would be able to get it up to 5ghz without any problems, heck my core 2 duo ran alot hotter than my new i7 920! the stock cooler on the i7 allowed me to touch 4ghz but could easily get up to 5 with the help of extra cooling.

@akl3g and yet the Phenom II x6 1090T 6 core processor is $300. Comparing the two, AMD's Hexa-Core processor performs slightly slower but come on about $1000.00 vs $300.00 obviously unless you really want to build the best computer or money is like air to you your going with AMD's 6 core processor.

You can readily view reviews of the I7 980x against the new AMD 6 core online. The benchmarks show that Intel completely wipe the floor with AMD.

Intel is the king of CPU power, at a cost.
