AMD FX 8370 and 8370E processor review

We review the AMD FX 8370 and 8370E processor today. You guys have been hearing the magic word 'Vishera' for a while now and it is the codename for the Piledriver core based FX series processors from AMD. The CPU tested today has eight physical CPU cores, it will have a base clock of 4000 MHz, and can Turbo towards 4200. And that makes the FX series a multi-threaded high frequency monster. You can read our review right here at Guru3D of course.

How does these compare to other AMD Fx's? Wondering as the first thing i noticed is the MASSIVE improvement in memory bandwidth around 70% increase compared to the older ones. So these are clearly using a newer stepping and has some modifications.

Although there's really nothing new here that couldn't be achieved by playing with the clocks on the previous CPUs yourself, I'm still pleased as the price reductions will mean I can upgrade my FX 6100 soon.
It doesn't look like the new chips overclock any better so it will probably still be best to save money and go for the 8320.
No new chips or pricing seem to have appeared on any UK sites I have checked but cclonline.com have the FX 9590 on sale for just under £160 so that may be what I go for when the time comes if the price is still the same.
My motherboard may struggle with the 220W requirement (MSI 990FXA-GD65) but my H80 should cope if I turn up the noise a bit.
Overclockers has them.

Thanks, looks like the prices for the 8320 and 8350 are pretty much unchanged though
I don't check overclockers much these days but I used to use them all the time when I had a company car with free fuel so I could go pick stuff up from them. Now I tend to use aria and ebuyer.
