This CPU is sure a step forward when it comes to AMD CPU's the main problem is that Intel is still way ahead of AMD with their faster versions of theCorei5 and i7 cpu's. Looking at todays prices we can see that the Core i7 930 cpu cost about 10$ more...

AMD enters the performance game in third place with its brand-new, six-core, 3.2GHz Phenom II X6 1090T processor. Codenamed "Thuban," this $299, 45-nanometer CPU can hit speeds of up to 3.6GHz as a result of Turbo Core, the AMD equivalent of Intel's...

When Intel released the Core i7-980X to the masses earlier this year this brought a new meaning to the term CPU performance and brought six cores with 12 threads to their lineup for the first time. One of the issues with any Extreme Edition CPU from In...
In terms of performance, the 1090T, as expected falls by the wayside when compared to the Intel 980X CPU. The Core i7-980X is priced at $999, making it in a completely different price class when comparing the two. The Intel CPU also has higher subsyste...

It seems like every time AMD makes progress in their battle with Intel, their rivals pull away even further. The Phenom II X4 9xx was a fantastic CPU series for the price, but then Intel introduced Core i3 and Core i5. After some new products and price...
sI have to say, I have mixed feelings about the new Phenom II X6 processors. On one hand, it’s nice to see AMD step up to a new price range and actually compete (Intel probably holds a permanent position at $1000, but perhaps the $550-600 i7 9xx are an...

Without any doubt, Phenom II X6 1090T is the best thing AMD can offer based on their current K10.5 architecture. It is my belief that it will be very hard to squeeze even more out of it before the new Bulldozer architecture comes out. Six phsical cores...
