AMD 2nd Gen Bulldozer CPU Pricing Leaked


Though the "official" release has not been made by AMD, it didn't stop the pricing and preorders from pop up on shopblt.com.

The pricing listed by BLT (if accurate) has the flagship FX-8350 coming in at $253.00.

Based on the specs revealed in late August, FX-8350 is listed with a 4.00 GHz clock speed (4.20 GHz TurboCore speed), eight-cores, 16 MB of total cache and TDP of 125W.

The FX-8320 features 3.50 GHz clock speed, eight-cores, 16 MB of total cache and TDP of 125W.

 The FX-8320 is priced at $242.05.
