AMD FX-8350 review

and its line of FX-CPUs last year, AMD's new CPUs now face an even sterner test. Since the release of the FX-8150 and the subsequent line of FX-branded CPUs, Intel has compounded its woes with its Ivy Bridge architecture's 22nm die-shrink, increasing performance while dropping power consumption.

AMD FX-8350 Processor Review: Tuned-Up Bulldozer

Piledriver microarchitecture, a refreshed Bulldozer, has finally reached the flagship AMD FX processors. Will it make the Socket AM3+ platform more appealing than LGA 1155? Quite possible, because the new AMD microarchitecture wasn't the only trick they had up their sleeve.

AMD's new-for-2012 octo-core desktop processor shows improved performance with software that takes full advantage of all cores. It's a good option for upgraders with an earlier AMD FX-based system, but single-core performance and power efficiency still fall behind Intel's competing Core i5 chips.
Pros:
  • Reasonably priced
  • Appreciable performance improvements with multicore-optimized software
  • Compatible with older AMD socket and motherboards
Cons:
  • Still lags behind in single-core tests
  • Uses much more power than comparable Intel chips
  • which also have on-chip graphics

AMD FX-8350 review

When AMD was throwing around the specs of its first bulldozer chips we all sat up and took notice. After all, it was AMD's first new CPU technology redesign for an absolute age, and what it was planning on doing with the new bulldozer microarchitecture looked pretty darned revolutionary.

AMD FX-8350 review

The FX-8350 is the first of AMD's 2012 range of performance processors. There's a clock speed boost and a new core design, which AMD hopes will start to close the performance gap between its chips and Intel's all-conquering Core range.

FX-8350

This is a good processor and wod recommend it to any1 who loves high end gaming and needs raw power for the most demanding applications. I run a dual boot system of w7 and ppc64 and works realy well on both with a SSHD drive give this a shot and you won't be disappointed aspecialy with fx sabertooth...
Pros:
  • This thing is realy good considering it's not 9370 or 9570 as the 9370 is a 8350 overclocked by default when purchased
  • For a processor running at 4.0 and the price it beats even the Intel when paired with right mobo
Cons:
  • When I purchased this cpu I was not impressed after installing it to get Red CPU_LED n removed it to find out the pins were bent when purchased it
  • I have never had one processor over the yrs of building with bent pins n have built 20 systems in last 10yrs

"Great"

Runs games like a charm and I recommend getting the cooler master hyper 212 evo because the stock heat sink is loud but it does keep the core under 50 degrees.

From Fx 4350 to Fx 8350 Upgrade Path

It was a huge upgrade paths from what I started out with to buy a Fx 4350 $70 and a brand new Gigabyte board Fx990 Ud3 Ultra for $130 as a replacement of my x79 Asus Pro 3960x to be given to my big brother sometime in the future, he will get better use out of it than me.
Pros:
  • In comparison: The Fx 8350 help ran my games even better like Dirt Rally for example
  • On map like Finland on clear night, the frame rate went from a overclock Fx 4350 4.7Ghz to a Stock speed and under-volt to 1.3v to be averaging over 80fps compare to getting 57fps average on Ultra setting 5760x1080...
Cons:
  • Single core is weaker
  • 3dMark Fire strike combine graphic test run (the last test) ran way better on the Fx 4350 than the Fx 8350, however the physical test run did way better than the Fx 4350 and I don't know why it getting beat on all test but one when overclock to 4.7Ghz at 1.42V by a mere 3%.
