TITLE: AMD Phenom-II X4-975 Black Edition ( -at -) Benchmark Reviews

DESCRIPTION: To start off the new year right, AMD is filling in some more of their Phenom-II lineup. Two AMD CPUs set for release in early January

2011 are the Phenom-II X4-840 and the Phenom-II X4-975BE. The Phenom-II X4-975BE HDZ975FBK4DGM will become AMDs newest flagship quad-core processor.

The Thuban based 6-core processors have taken AMD's top spot away from the Phenom-II X4 Deneb based series, but the quad-cores still pack a lot of

performance and come at a price that is much less expensive than the Intel alternative. The Phenom-II X4-975BE comes set for release at an MSRP of

$195 and at a screaming 3.6Ghz clock speed. In this article, Benchmark Reviews is putting the Phenom-II X4-975BE through its paces. It's really going

to have to perform well to compete with the new Sandy Bridge platform coming out at the same time.
