AMD To Relaunch FX-9590 Flagship Piledriver Processor With All-In-One Liquid Cooling System At $360 US

This meme will never get old apparently,since stupid wont go away...ever.

[Misanthrope]

I was hoping for an actual new product or better implementation, this is still sadly not much better than 8320 which is at least priced a lot better.

[EChondo]

So...I'm pretty much waiting for Steamroller and Excavator here.

and you will probably get none. but will wait for the new "FX" that will supposudly get IPC up, and consumption down.

 

(still wish they would call it Phenom)

[ltguy]

So amd has nothing new up they're sleeve for FX, I get that. But could they at least give us what they already do have, an 8 core apu with 1.8 tflops gpu. Is that so much to ask?

[Guest Kloaked]

Wtf man. I was secretly hoping they'd have a new line of FX CPU's with better single core performance. I should have known better.

[theroflcopta]

I mean 360 dollars for a chip binned that well and a AIO isn't terrible value. But I just don't see much sense investing in an AM3+ CPU or mobo. Doubt it's going to last much longer.

An FX 9590 with a liquid cooler as stock already exists, this makes absolutely no sense !

AMD what are you trying to accomplish with this?

the new one has sweg 

[Kamina]

Didn't the 9590 ship with an All in one cooler from AMD at one point? I don't see how this is new.

[Linus_torvalds]

Not true AMD has announced that they are killing the AM3/AM3+ socket

ANY AMD SOCKET OR CPU is DEAD!!!! fuck this shit. in 2014 when intel is going to release 8 core i7 5960x with 16 threads they are releasing the same CPU with better cooling that has architecture from 2010-2011 LOL and some noobs here still suggest people to buy AMD CPUs LOL

[PillowSmoke]

That is the longest thread title I have seen. 

 

I've seen longer... *cough* *cough*

You made Genesis mad since he likes red. Therefore, he likes AMD.  :lol:

[Kevinkt]

I fucking called it. FUCKING CALLED IN THE TEASER NEWS POST

220 TDP?

 

Do I need to move even further north just to use this during the summer without breaking something?

You'd just cause global warming and prove Al Gore right along with flooding the world and murdering millions of innocent seals, penguins, polar bears, arctic foxes, wolves, orca, and other animals. Hey, at least you stopped the menace known as humanity. Maybe the next sentient species of sea elves will be more aware and harmonious with their surroundings. I doubt it, but whatever.

[The Crazed Child]

I see this as just a cheap way to refresh the FX series that everyone's forgotten about. I won't be buying one. No matter what clock speed you put it at, I guarantee that it still competes with a first-gen i7.

[aom]

Again, why the hell does everyone think this is true lol. I mean I would be really disappointed if this were true, but remember, its a rumor and from WCCFTech no less. Over half these posts are assuming that this is completely true lol. Then again, I don't want to believe this (I like AMD btw, but lately, there hasn't been anything to like, except for the Kaveri APUs for cheap gaming rigs)

[Eroda]

they might i mean FX has had some bad rep the last couple of years they might release their new x86 arch as Phenom see how it performs then with refinements bring back the FX name , and if they had a SR FX lineup it should have been out by now.. 

[frontliner]

I just want to see a nice CPU (NO APU) from amd. Can it be that hard?

 

All CPUs are APUs now.

Some people cant afford to spend $300 on a CPU and then another $150 on a good motherboard so that is why AMD is still recommended once Intel pulls their head out of their asses and lowers their prices then I'm sure AMD will be gone but until then there are people on tight budgets who would like a multi-core CPU to ply some of their favorite games

[ROK]

I'm still waiting for the 9590 that comes bundled with a liquid nitrogen starter kit

[euniqe]

All CPUs are APUs now.

 

Come on, don't be like that. No shit they are all technically the same as an "apu". He means he wants AMD to stop pouring all their R&D into their apu-line of processors and concentrate more on their high-end processors.

 

And FX-series processors don't have on-die graphics, so they aren't in fact apu's.

[landon418]

At this price, it would be better to just buy an i7.
