AMD Teases new FX-processor with Liquid Cooling
On Twitter AMD's vice president of channel sales Roy Taylor showed a photo of a box with a new FX processor. The SKU indicates that the CPU is paired with liquid cooling. Unfortunately the photo is rather fuzzy so we can not read the specs on the side of the box.
Probably (we think) these will be the retail versions of the AMD FX-9370 and FX-9590, highly (over) clocked Vishera-processors with a rather spicy TDP. We'll have to wait and see if Vishera will see an actual new release or if AMD is going to really surprise us all with something really interesting.
Something new is coming... @AMDFX pic.twitter.com/VCP7AoJHV9

I remember when they first announced the new FX's they had shown with liquid coolers. Better late than never I guess.

Those have been available for years over here. Doubt they'd handle 220W, though.

Is it wrong to hope for tweaked piledriver or better yet steamroller modules on 28nm, would be awesome

I posted in the other thread about this. It's probably the FX-9590 with an AIO.

I don't see what the point is in releasing another 8 core processor now that they have HSA out. It's pointless! A big number of the workloads that can make use of 8 CPUs can be accelerated if executed on GCN's hundreds of 16-wide vector execution pipelines.
Physics simulation and many AI workloads can be accelerated substantially if compiled to run on top of HSA and utilize the GPU part of the APU. Now that you have shared memory space and straightforward shared execution of threads without context switching, why not to put all those teraflops of execution resources to good use?
A pointless release!

Oo i do hope these are new tech and not 2 year tech they used for those old chops, i really want amd to compete with intel for once, so intel stops resting

tsunami231 its AMD all they got is 2 year old CPU technology. Gave up on them with bulldozer.

i gave up on long before that, but because AMD can even begin to compete with intel in the desktop market, intel has gotten lazy or been hold back performance increase then been slight performance increase over that last few generations. or so people around here like to complain about anyway.

AMD Ghz = junk
Intel Ghz = improvement
It's sad to see AMD go this route, but 6ghz AMD still won't match 4.4ghz Intel
They are doing this because if the i7 4970 at computex no doubt.
If it really is say a 5.8-6Ghz AMD, so what? It may come close to a 3770K at 4Ghz IF that. That is being VERY generous too.
Architecture makes a big difference.
So yeah, that tdp would make the chip even more worthless. So I agree.

With any luck, new architecture.

I seriously doubt this will be new architecture. Too soon for that.
Probably not even steamroller.

AMD CPU's are barely acceptable, intel are vastly outclass them in any parameter, that why Sandy Bridge was the greatest and still nothing can replace it.
Probably rehashed bulldozer, it time to leave that in the past.

Kaveri annihiliates intel as an APU...
So did Piledriver, TBH
