AMD FX-60 to arrive in January

Vikingod · Nov 16, 2005, 06:08 PM

"The AMD FX-60 is due out in the second week of January.

Preliminary reports are that it will be a decent overclocker, early samples went to almost 3GHz on air, with little or no tweaking. If you couple it with the new NVidia 7800/512 cards, you will be easily able to break the 15K barrier in 3DMark05.

It won't be a cheap rig, but it is something a lightly trained monkey can shatter records with.

You have to love progress."

Damn whoever can buy all that is just RICH. A FX-60 (though what's the point with dual core becoming more and more important) and two 7800GTX 512 or X1800XT 512 in crossfire is just KILLER!!!!
