Thanks for the insight Guy,
Ii love trying to keep up with the latest, i was beginning to think AMD were dead after the bulldozer and piledriver (Which was first only a prototype)
Well i have Win 7 Ultimate x64, so would my bets going the x64 version as i like to invest towards the future, as x64 or whats my best bet? my current hardware setup is in my Sig, what upgrades you think ill need to be doing in the future?
Whats are your specs Guy?, hope AMD gets their heating issues out of the way on their CPU's.
Btw are APU's the "new" or do we class AMD CPU's as APU's now?
As i have the Piledriver FX9590, i bought just before intel haswell and broadwell CPU"s were on the market, if i had of waited i could've got my AMD CPU for AUD $200 rather than double, cos they split their price due to intel releasing their chips, or i could've just went with intel
And yes most games now are requiring x64 rather than x86
As I've heard too is is quite the smart engineer, i didn't know he did the Athlons though!
I had a Athlon Duo back in the day in my Compact laptop, used to play BF2 until the hardrive died and it was worth buying a new laptop than replacing the part.
I was about 15-16
