AMD's Phenom X3 8000 Series: Fighting Two Cores with Three?

[Hardware Canucks]

Pricing is also pretty interesting, as the top end Phenom X3 8750 is only $20 cheaper than the quad-core Phenom X4 9750 despite running at the same clock speed. The X3 8650 and 8450 are far more interesting as both of them are priced closer to $150. http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets...oc.aspx?i=3293
