    Stick with the Phenum II 975. Bulldozer was an epic failure for AMD and the Piledriver architecture which was supposed to be so much better offers only marginal improvements. Biggest problem is the power efficiency is horrible and they're not true quad or octo cores. S I'm a long time AMD fanboy too.

    Ah you know this isn't Bulldozer... while can anyone still find a Phenom II X4 975 (HDZ975FBGMBOX) in the wild? Rolling Eyes
