AMD FX 8 core spotted at Gamescom – running Dirt 3

Kitguru is over at Gamescom and we managed to snag a shot of the upcoming AMD 8 core FX box. This is one of the most awaited new releases from AMD, with fanboys already sitting on the edge of their chairs, credit card in hand.

Will you be holding this box very shortly when the product hits retail?

And we managed to get a screenshot of Dirt 3 running with the upcoming 8 core design. We can't give any performance figures just yet, but obviously as it happens, we will keep you updated !

Kitguru says: Enough to take on Intel in the mid range market?

  5. Nobody else noticed the ‘a little too big box’? Maybe it’s the ultra-high-end-actually-a-little-bit-over-midrange watercooled edition, that would be so sweeeeeeeeeet. (if it’s true, of course)
    Can’t wait to see the new line, maybe the phenom’s prices will go down a little bit, too.
