High power consumption is still an issue
Single threaded performance still needs improvement
AMD has done a lot to improve the FX-8350 considering the lack of usual CPU architecture improvements. With no change in die size, TDP or production process, its managed to squeeze up to 15 per cent more performance out of this chip, all whilst lowering p...
Abstract: The AMD FX-8350 has a slight performance-per-Watt advantage over the FX-8150 when running OpenSSL. Through a wide variety of benchmarks, the average system power consumption for the AMD FX-8350 in the system with the ASUS Crosshair V Formula mother...
Abstract: AMD FX 8350 - 8320 - 6300 and 4300 processors performance analyzedAMD released the FX series Vishera - Piledriver based processor. And though everybody has been focusing on that most high-end AMD FX 8350 processor, another three processors have been relea...
Abstract: Last year's launch of AMD's FX processors was honestly disappointing. The Bulldozer CPU cores that were bundled into each Zambezi chip were hardly power efficient and in many areas couldn't significantly outperform AMD's previous generation platform. Look...

Abstract: From the initial testing of the brand new AMD FX-8350 "Vishera", the performance was admirable, especially compared to last year's bit of a troubled start with the AMD FX Bulldozer processors. For many of the Linux computational benchmarks carried out ...
Excellent Price, Improved "Piledriver" Cores, AMD Turbo Core 3.0, Improved latencies compared to FX8150, 4GHz out of the box (4.2GHz with Turbo Core), Unlocked, 5GHz Overclockable
Power consumption and temperatures have been improved but still high
Expectations have been mixed in regards to the new “Piledriver” core processors, mostly because of the hype that surrounded Bulldozer and the consequent results that were not up to par with what most enthusiasts wished. It also did not help that Bulldoz...
I didn't give Bulldozer as bad a review as a lot of people did. Unlike many, I tried to look at Bulldozer as just any other CPU, not the return of the FX of days past, when AMD ruled the roost and Intel was playing catch up. I gave Bulldozer an Overcloc...
The FX-8350 is closer to what the FX-8150 should have been. There, I said it, and I think that pretty much sums up the comparison…so if you stop reading right now, you at least have the right take away. The CPU performs better in almost all facets, ru...
