Maybe I read this date once and forgot all about it.
Now I'm thinking that is a lot sooner that I remembered.

This year we celebrate the Autumnal Equinox with the release of Bulldozer, yay!!!

Holding out for the FX-8170 are we? You know they'll probably have a solid release date for 10 cores before Q1 2012. You keep waiting for the best to come out, you'll always be waiting! ;)

Well? It is going to be the flagship for a while. Heard some very encouraging things about this architecture....

And the actual shipping clocks are much faster than when this engineering sample was benchmarked. Sick...

I already bought the Sabertooth 990 FX motherboard for it. I thought I would be able to install my 940 black in it until the chip of my dreams comes out....opps, no ddr3 support in the 940 memory controller....crap. :oops:
