The AMD FX-4350 and FX-6350 are available for pre-order

The two newcomers to the AMD FX-4300 and FX-6300 series differ from their predecessors only in terms of clocks. The six-core FX-6350's 3,9 GHz baseband can spin up to 4,2 GHz, thanks to Turbo Core's blessed work. Our readers think this pace requires the 125 watt TDP class. The product is now available for pre-order in the U.S. for $ 154 - making it barely more expensive than the 3,5 GHz FX-6300 anyway.

The smaller model only goes below 4 GHz at idle, ticking at 4,2 GHz by default, and 4,3 GHz under Turbo Core. According to AMD, this quad-core CPU did not fit into the 95-watt category either, so in principle, the two new titans could produce similar power consumption. We think the AMD FX-4350’s $ 142 pricing is a bit exaggerated, as it’s minimally cheaper than the other protagonist of our news.
