According to Xbit laboratories, consumer Bulldozer chips were also delayed until the fourth quarter. Guru3D knows for sure it's half October.
The FX series lineup was expanded with several new models. In addition to FX-4100, FX-6100, FX-8100 and FX-8150 SKUs, AMD is going to launch quad-core FX-4170, and 95 Watt and 125 Watt versions of eight-core FX-8120. At least three microprocessors from original FX launch line-up surfaced today in a price list of Bottom Line Telecommunications online store:
AMD FX-8120 and FX-8150 CPUs are 8-core models with 8 MB L2 and 8 MB L3 cache. The processors operate at 3.1 and 3.6 GHz, and listed at $222 and $266 respectively. These prices should drop by $10 - $20 once the chips are released. Considering that AMD official prices in 1K quantities are usually $10 - $15 lower than the prices of production chips in this store, we can expect that official prices will be $185 - $200 for FX-8120, and $230 - $245 for FX-8150.
AMD FX-6100 has only 6 CPU cores, or 3 Bulldozer modules. As such, it has only 6 MB of L2 cache. The processor is clocked at 3.3 GHz, and up to 3.9 GHz when Turbo Core feature is active. Like eight-core CPUs, this model has 8 MB L3 cache. The FX-6100 is listed at $188, and its expected official price is $155 - $170, or close to current official price of Phenom II X6 1055T.
The table below contains a summary of FX-6100, FX-8120 and FX-8150 details:
| Model | Cores | Threads | Frequency | Turbo Frequency | L2 cache | L3 cache | TDP | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
