AMD Athlon 64 FX-53 Processor Review

[MediaMan]

AMD is setting their sights on taking the pole position again with the Athlon 64 FX-53. AMD have launched another processor in the FX family that delivers an intimidating set of benchmarks. FX-53 is more expensive and it won't be immediately coming off the shelves into consumers hands in great quantities. Could the purpose of AMD's flagship processor be to establish a reputation as a performance king rather than as the underdog and cheaper alternative? Consumers do buy a reputation and a good reputation can positively influence sales of other products carrying the AMD brand name.

What are you going to do with all those? You could make a bundle of cash selling them cheap. If you sold them for $500 each, they'd be gone within an hour, and you'll be sitting on a lot of dirty,dirty money.

OR you could donate them to your fellow reviewers...

If you read the last page of the review, you can see that he sent them back :)

Awww, I was hoping he was kidding!

But I probably would have done the same. I can think of pretty evil things to do, but can never do them...

Man, they sure do bash on intel alot. But I tell you what, if someone offered me a free 3.2 ghz pentium 4 EE with HT, Id take it ;).
