Flagship AMD CPU, you mean the Phenom II X6 1090T 3.2 GHz I suppose?


Nope, the AMD Phenom II x4 BE. To be honest, I pulled the term "flagship" from many of the reviews for the CPU. A lot of reviewers recommend this CPU over the 6 core due to the inability of the 6 core CPU to outperform the 4 core in certainly practical applications(such as gaming).

The 6 core is actually the PSP Go of the AMD line atm(unfair to the X6 but I'm trying to draw a parallel). I wouldn't call the PSP Go the flagship sony handheld though.

I'm just going by the user reviews for both processors though. I would have actually bought the 6 core no matter what the price, but I read via those reviews that the drawbacks were enough of a hassle to outweigh the benefits vs the higher clocked BE X4.

In the future though, as I've stated, I will upgrade to a better processor, but for my current purposes, the X6 is a sidegrade.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
