AMD 9590
#10
Update.

toys still work fine. CC replaced a node in the area. Nothing lost yet.... New channels and an extra 10 or 15 MB/s of speed on Biz class. Not a bad tradeoff for being down for 36 hours.

9590's put out enough heat to cook with! Monster of a chip!!! Had to fork out for a monster PSU to play with it but it is an absolute joy to OC!.The RMA'd Crosshair is a sweet mobo to play with as well...Great investment while the AM3 platform is still around. Would I pay $300 for a 9590?? NOPE! Not a chance. Intel is Much faster, more efficient and mostly better at everything but I'll always be a AMD guy and I simply REFUSE to shell out 1500 bucks for a 8 core cpu, mobo, and DDR4 ...

It was fun to play with it for a few weeks, though. It's far too power hungry for what I do for every day use but I really enjoyed watching the included AIO cooler grasping for breath under full load...Definitely need to invest in a serious water loop to fully utilize that CPU. I'm gonna trade it to a buddy for a 8370e and some serious Kind Bud in a few weeks....He will run his 3 290x's on it under a full custom loop and it will get flogged till it bursts into flames just as it should.
