Re:The bottom line is that the Phenom 9600 Black Edition offers bad value for money. Based on our benchmark results and the direct comparison with Intel's Q6600, AMD's CPU should cost no more than $220, in our opinion.> Hmm, They think it's ~10% overvalued. That is just considering performance. It doesn't include the fact that Phenom is a power guzzling hog in comparison to Intel, and the fact that Phenom is one of the worst overclocking CPUs released in modern times. Oh, and Intel is releasing a superior replacement at the same price point in a matter of weeks. Phenom is an utter and complete failure.
