SUMMARY

AMD's Bulldozer architecture was initially slated for release in Q3 2023, but skepticism surrounds its actual launch due to previous delays since its announcement in 2009. Users express concerns that the long wait may result in a product that fails to meet expectations, drawing comparisons to the infamous Duke Nukem Forever. Many recommend opting for Intel processors instead, citing the prolonged uncertainty surrounding Bulldozer's release as a reason to seek immediate upgrades.

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 need to upgrade my desktop in the near future and don't want to wait for something that's not going to be released for another few years.

It'll probably happen eventually, but when it does its going to be underwhelming. Kind of like Duke Nukem Forever, been in development for 13 years (or so) and when it gets released it's going to be one of the worst games on the market.

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.
