So are these the same or faster than 980x intel chips?
Amazon is taking preoders. $325 for the 1090T and 222 for the 1055T

Any idea if preordering from amazon would be a good idea if one is planning on getting one of these guys in the next 2 months or so? I would hate for the prices to go up in the meantime due to demand.

Not even close. These will match up against the i7 920 to i7 940. Read the dozens of threads on this topic for the reasons.

are they faster than i5 750? are these gonna be am3 cpus?
AMD chips can hit high, no one really know the 24/7 OCs for the hexa cores
btw- the Crosshair III is a great board, and $200 not $250.......
http://www.xtremesystems.org/Forums/showpost.php?p=4343615&postcount=111Thanks for getting back to me so soon.
So, if I'm planning to overclock (I just purchased a Noctua NH-U12P for cheap), and wanted to get the best performance, surely the i7 is the way to go, right? Can't Phenom's overclock just a few hundred MHz compared to Intels? and a 930 @ 3.8-4.2 gigs should be as good as a 980X... In theory?
you shouldnt have an issue getting the timing
also, no worries on the cooler, you have low profile ram(IE no mass cooler like Dominator or Reaper ram), so worst case the fan sits on top of the ram sticks, wont affect cooling.....
Amazon is shipping the 1055T. I ordered one today, will be arriving tomorrow.
i think the 1090T is worth it at 325...wish it was at MSRP of 295, but thats not too much of a difference, as i will be using those cores immediately....in my Crosshair III
is the 1090T shipping(waiting on a check or two so i can have some cash in my spending accounts )

If you Google AMD 1090t it shows up at ZZF for $299 shipped. Clicking takes you to their home page however. Still nice to know they (maybe) aren't planning on gouging.
I got the 1055T because I didn't have the extra $100 to spend. I'm going to be putting it in a foxconn destroyer MB, hopefully it will work.
