AMD's Bulldozer architecture was initially promised for release in 2009, with expectations for a Q3 launch in the current year. However, skepticism surrounds its actual release, with concerns that it may be underwhelming upon arrival, similar to the long-delayed game Duke Nukem Forever. The uncertainty about Bulldozer's performance and the prolonged wait have led some users to recommend opting for Intel processors instead, especially for those needing immediate upgrades. The general sentiment is that unless Bulldozer offers significant advancements, it may not justify the wait.

Last I heard AMD was planning on releasing its bulldozer architecture during Q3 later this year. Does anyone thing this will actually ever happen? AMD promised this way back in 2009 and we have yet to see anything.

I recommend to just go with Intel and be done with it. My friend was waiting for Bulldozer to update his system but they took too long for him also. Unless this is something really revolutionary, it's not going to be worth waiting for at all.

AI has some form of control over your life. But what I’ve seen very recently is that people are loosing their ingenuity and deciding to use AI. I feel as if it’ll bleed into STEM which is kinda has already and, every idea or thought could become fully reliant on AI. Yeah AI makes life easier but at a...
