i guess yiou didnt hear about how they overclocked the 8150 and handed the i7 its ass on a platter and for power consumption i just went to tigerdirect and the i7 extreeme consumes 130 watts to run and the 8150 125watts so much for that! intel now wants to go 22nm like amd isnt thinking of doing the same keep running intel and amd will keep overclocking and awlays hold the crown like right now at 8.4 ghz lol!

but you always say you don't care about the price its about what is the best that you can get so how can say one thing and then change your mind and say another thing how dare you. YOU SIR ARE A LIAR AND A IDIOT FOR LOSING YOUR TOE. that AMD FX-8120 shoud run agains intel's best NOT BY IT'S PRICE LIKE YOU STATED

my friend told me that i should get the fx-6100 with 6 cores cause the 8 cores will just run over themselves any thoughts?

@dan75robot i7 unlocked is crap

Remember when AMD was kicking Intels ass back in the 90s? Good times.

@dan75robot fail troll is fail

@ATLMember I think it's the best, definitely has the best price/performance ratio

[ATLMember]

@npissoawsome i5 2500k is such a great processor for gaming

[ATLMember]

@dan75robot. Even midrange Intel chips kick this thing's ass... and it was released way later. I like how AMD dupes you suckers into thinking that higher clockspeed means better chip, and that the 8 cores make it more powerful than Intel's 6. This thing is universally accepted by reviewers as an epic faliure by AMD, especially with ivy bridge right around the corner

@dan75robot And there's more, amd's bulldozer chips came out AFTER sandy bridge, and they're a lot worse. Ivy Bridge is coming out soon, and they use like half the amount of watts, and (most likely) will perform way better then every amd chip
