Not impressived at first part of preview, FX-8350 at 4GHz is only about 10% faster in multi-thread and around 5% in single thread apps than FX-8150 at 3.6GHz!

Let wait until second part of preview coming up later with power consumption and how good it overclock.

I doubt Piledriver FX going to be the last high end desktop CPU ever as Steamroller and Excavator will be coming to server and mainstream desktop APU only?

Here is a quote from the article:

Because, FX-8350 is the same **** like FX-8150 price of that "crap" can be only around 200 USD.

BWHAHAHAHA I'm not joking. That quote came from that article. If you don't believe me, go read it. It's at the very end of it.
