Not sure if you knew but AM2...

Oh I know it will take time for the 939 socket to phase out, but it was a surprise to everyone that AMD would make NEW processors available for 939, not just the ones they've already been producing.

I was surprised to see that AMD had started to make the venice cores available on socket 754 and there still backporting cores to it i think...

AMD will stop support for 939 in a year and a half and 754 will stay around about 3-4 years for the Sempron support. The 5000+ and FX-62 will NOT come out on 939, it was just a typo on AMDs part on their site.

FX-62 is allready out for AM2

I was correcting the 939 mistake.

I would like to see a conroe compared to an FX-62 right about now... Anyone know if they have allready compared the two?

Article says the conroe was clocked "significantly lower" than FX-62 and still came on top.

I doubt it.

why do you doubt it?? i think they've already shown that clocked lower it performed better
