Phenom 9500 Not There Yet (Review)

To quote from The Register review on the AMD Phenom 9500, “It seems that 2008 is not going to be a good year for AMD”. Doesn’t sound to positive for the already in trouble AMD does it?
The Register have done a fantastic and lengthy review on the Phenom 9500, and though they liked it they said “AMD’s Phenom squares up for a fight with the Intel Core 2 Quad, but comes out with the bruises…” It means that if you are an AMD fanboy, you might want to wait till AMD can refine this processor class a little. They did give it a decent 75% rating, but I got a feeling it is more out of pity,  then the processor itself. At least the new ATI’s are good.
