AMD FX8150 CPU Review
AvP and Far Cry 2
Published: 12th October 2011 | Source: AMD | Price: £194.99 @ Aria |
Alien vs Predator
Stepping into some real-world gaming, Alien vs Predator starts off with the FX8150 and i5-2500K as near as makes no difference identical.
Far Cry 2
Finally the creaky old Far Cry 2 comes to AMDs rescue. The stock FX8150 is still behind its Intel target, but when overclocked we at last see a win for the Bulldozer.

I was secretly hoping AMD could pull it out and get one over intel. Shame. This is like watching the pentium 4 all over again. On paper faster, but in reality slower and much hotter running. Oh well, Sandy Bridge E for me

QuoteI didn't think it would be good, considering the 125W TDP instead of 140W and the low asking price of $250. SB-E all the way. I'm glad I didn't invest much into an AM3+ board (I got an AM3 board). Hopefully, we'll see some competition between the 8150 and the i5-2500K, price wise (may go 1155, IDK).Quote
