AMD encounter some difficulties in recent weeks to meet demand on its first hexa-core processors, the Phenom II X6, to the chagrin of motherboard manufacturers whose products are compatible with these chips struggled to find buyers.
It must be said that with its Phenom II X6 - codenamed Thuban - AMD has been able to offer a more attractive alternative to the single reference to six cores of Intel's catalog. While the Core i7 980X appears prohibitive tariffs ( 950 euros ), both models AMD are sold at prices much more reasonable 180 euros for the Phenom II X6 1055T and 260 euros for the Phenom II X6 BE 1090T .
Due to a price / performance ratio of the most honorable, the Phenom II X6 would thus created a demand greater than what had expected AMD, resulting from a few difficulties in the supply, but also the delay of Phenom II X4 960T. Two news, according to Digitimes, would not really taste the motherboard manufacturers: After struggling to put his hand on the 800 series chipsets, they are currently struggling to sell their models AM3.
