Zen Performance CPUs will be Late Q4 or Early Q1 2017.

AM4 will be Q3, and APUs for AM4 will still be Excavator Cores until Zen APUs arrive.


My brother FX8120 is trash, water pump failed after power outtage, and when I went to take it off, it pulled the CPU right out of the socket.

no Amount of Artic Clean or floss can get the CPU off the block, I think the thermal paste pretty much harded and the CPU is now glued to the block.

So Now I have a Block with a 8 Core CPU stuck to it, and the Substrate package actually cracked, so kts likely trash.

Luckily I had a old system sitting around with AM3 PhenomII sittin in it.

Score 1 for side of the road pickups, lol,
I pick them up to the frequency of 4 or 5 a week and put them in the garage for spare parts etc.
