DON'T BUY AN "AMD FX-8150 FX 8-Core Black Edition Processor (FD8150FRGUBOX)"
From day one (never overclocked) my brand new computer wont survive more than ten minutes before something happens and I get a blue screen with a "A Clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval". All I had to type in the search bar was "A clock inter", and Google filled the rest out perfectly and the first result was "can the bulldozer get any worse?" or something like that. Granted, this is not the only CPU that I found that threw this code... BUT it was the only one that was nearly 100% for being responsible and being new (out of the box) with default settings!!
I guess AMD is aware of this problem and says they are working on a fix... but they have not issued a recall and these CPUs are still being sold. Unfortunately, I didn't know this before I bought it. I was too trusting and only researched performance in comparison with Intel and was happy with the assumed overclocking capabilities and the price. But I am not going to put up with a brand new CPU not working out of the box, so I have sent it and the motherboard back to Amazon (not Amazon's fault, in fact they were super easy to work with and pretty much no questions asked).
I will be buying an Intel CPU/motherboard and probably will be from now on... this is ridiculous. I am tempted to return the 2 AMD Radeon 6870's as I am afraid they are pieces as well. I will let you know once I actually have a working computer, lol.
