Continuing their tradition with the unlocked "black" version, we get the new Phenoms: X4 9950 (2.6ghz) Black Edition at $235, and the normal 9350e (2.0ghz, $195) and 9150e (1.8ghz, $175).

ZDNet

Some Greek site supposedly OC'd it to 3.6ghz. (See how far I'll go to find you info?) Check pics at their site:

Greeks OC'ing like mofos

damn sweet price for a 3.6ghz quad core...

Please let this bring down Intel's prices. I don't want to buy a new socket mobo, but damn do I want quads :-0

dang. didn't look like they did much of anything to get it to 3.6 either (though can't really tell much either :P)

common AMD, get back in the game!
