AMD Launches Budget Processor Refresh

MojoKid writes "AMD has again launched a bevy of new processors targeted squarely at budget-conscious consumers. Though Intel may be leading the market handily in the high-performance arena, AMD still provides a competitive offering from a price/performance perspective for the mainstream. HotHardware has a performance quick-take of the new 3.2GHz Phenom II X2 555 and 2.9GHz Athlon II X4 635. For $100 or less, bang for the buck with AMD is still relatively high."

anyone recommend a good AMD mobo for a hackintosh?

[SethJohnson]

Would like to get one of these discount quadcore AMD processors, don't know which is the best option for a Hackintosh, though. Any recommendations? My current hackintosh is Intel-based and I don't know how tricky it might be to configure a working AMD--based hackintosh. Links appreciated.

Funny... slashdotters hate M$ with a passion....

Yet suck Inte£'s tiny corporate dick even after 3 convictions for monopoly abuse.

Dumb hypocritical dipshits.

Remember... WIntel?

They were anti-competitive from way back in the 80's and 90's... talk to some OEMs and resellers... they were the microsoft of the chip world yet they got free pass after pass back then and it's even worse now.

Do the right thing... stop supporting monopolist scum!
