8 cores, thats insane O.o. I'm worried if they even helps games, especially with most being 86x.

It wont help much in games at all more cores does not equal better gaming performance as a lot of us with Intel sandybridge cpu's have found out.

I've already got a 990fx system waiting for the bulldozer cpu's to test out and I will be posting the results online and hopfully be one of the first to do real time battlefield 3 benchmarks with bulldozer Wink

There are quite a few games out there that support multi-core processors and a lot of benchmarks out there have shown it to perform better.

Although would 8-core be better than 4-core? It seems now-a-days the performance increase is getting smaller and smaller as things double and double.

I also agree that newer games and processors do help more with gaming when it comes to multi-cores than before. But Rhydian is right by saying that it doesn't necessarily mean better performance.

Also, now that you bring BF3, someone asked Johan Andersson (Rendering Architecton at DICE) on twitter some questions about processors and here are the answers he gave:

Q:can't you answer to hardware questions? Wonna know how positive effect 6-core cpu has over 4-core in bf3 :/
A:can't tell you, game is not done yet

Then he tried again...

Q:Well can you tell will it support 8-core bulldozer? Any plans? Please say you're considering it! Very Happy
A:it is x86 so will of course run out of the box, don't know what the perf will be tough

It doesn't seem like they're giving much consideration about it threw twitter. But on the GDC, they did say something about focusing on supporting newer tecnologies and highend computers like multi-core processors and SLI/Crossfire configurations.

I'm confused now :/

No matter what happens the new chipset and CPU is definatly something to look out for this year and next but if you just want reliable gaming performance I would stick with the intel core i5-2500k until this CPU has been tested in battlefield 3 Wink
