All the 1st generation of FX processors.

They were awesome if you wanted a fast cpu for a small amount of money.

AMD were sabotaged by their marketing who over hyped the fuck out of it,so they were massively below expectations.

If they had been marketed as "We're trying something new, look at this first try" everyone would have thought they were great.

AMD FX8350 @ 5GHZ - Asus Sabertooth 990FX rev.2 - 16gb Corsair Vengeance 1866mhz - Sapphire Radeon HD7950 Vapor-X edition - Corsair Vengeance C70 - 64gb OCZ vector SSD, 500gb WD Blue - OCZ FAT4L1TY 750w psu - Coolermaster Seidon 240m with Coollab Liquid Pro
