(I believe TTL is the only one to have posted a full review of one of the CPU's on YT so far)

TTL has posted the review of the 5960X while being the most expensive of the new CPU's it's the only 8 core I am currently watching it to see how the 8 core fairs, Grab a cup of tea or some popcorn and sit down for an hour long review

 

(not sure if posted yet) 

 

Interesting after you watch it care to give the TL:DR run down (or TL:DW)?

After 5 minutes I am intrigued it appears the 5960X is possibly a rebranded Xeon TTL found 4 extra cores that were disabled.

Hmm interesting, badly binned 12 cores perhaps?

Possibly he said it was very close to the already available 12 core server Xeon.
