time Alrighty, time to give a small overview of the previous pages : The AMD FX-8150 CPU out of the box, is not really what many might have expected. Why ? As it is hardly any better in older apps then the previous AMD Thuban lineup. I explicitly ment...
So, let’s say someone puts Core i5-2500K and FX-8150 in front of you. The Core i5 costs $220 bucks, and the FX runs $245. Which one do you buy? If it’s me, I’m going with the Core i5. I gave the -2500K a Tom’s Hardware Recommended Buy award back in Jan...
In many cases, AMD's FX-8150 is able to close the gap between the Phenom II X6 and Intel's Core i5 2500K. Given the right workload, Bulldozer is actually able to hang with Intel's fastest Sandy Bridge parts. We finally have a high-end AMD CPU with power g...
AMD has been buzzing along as of late with the release of Zacate and Llano. The new direction of the company has really been a breath of fresh air especially with the introduction of “Fusion” technology. The on-die GPU’s that support DX11 are simply gr...

Performance In Single Threaded Apps Not On Par With Multithreaded, Gold, Discuss this review in our forums
It’s been a long wait for Bulldozer’s arrival, with the date being pushed back again and again. Naturally, that had me going in looking for the flaw that kept it from coming to market on any of the previous announced release dates. Was the architectur...
Whether or not we're correct about Bulldozer really being a server and workstation CPU, it's terribly unsuited to the kinds of software we're currently using on consumer PCs. This software is still heavily reliant on single-thread performance, and the FX-...
Excellent multithreaded performance, Attractive price, Unlocked multiplier for simplified overclocking,
Not always faster than competing Intel or AMD CPUs, Sluggish with multi-threaded workloads, High power usage under load, No integrated graphics, May require new motherboard, Windows 8 required for some features,
AMD threatens to make a dent in Intel’s performance leadership with its FX-8150 CPU, the first to use the company’s completely redesigned Bulldozer core architecture, but stumbles in a few key areas. ...
