Hello everyone,
My name is Sam and I'm coming to you guys live from my workstation at AMD in Toronto!

I've been browsing the site for years but I decided to finally join and give something back!

Today I PM'd the VX and MX revolution from Stooples :cheesygri

I would like to thank all of you guys for finding all these awesome deals and posting them. Keep up the great work!

When is it coming out? How much will it be? Been waiting a long time for AMD's offering, now that Intel is (hopefully temporarily) ahead.

I need to upgrade. Have any OEMs? :D

I am also curious to know the release date/price, can't even give us a little hint? :lol: I could also use an upgrade, let me know if you have anything laying around =)

Most of the speculation is Q3-Q4/2007. I can't give exact dates, but I can't stress just around the corner enough =D

It's not as great as you would think because you're restricted to the products they make available on the employee store. Also, the "original prices" are from the ATI Store, which is usually much more expensive than your Canada Computers/etc.

Haha are you sure you are from AMD? Your user name "pretender" make you seem like a pretender.

Sorry for that lol, I was just wondering since they had it before the merge. At least it wasn't as bad as "make better cpu's".

Hehehe, I know. But I did end it with LOL, meaning I didn't really seriously mean it.

Are you using it on XP or Vista? I think Vista drivers are still having some problems.
