Recommended Posts

Which one would perform better? The San Diego or the Clawhammer? there is only a $6 difference on newegg and was thinking about purchasing it

I would go for the SD. The SD is newer and requires less power therefor making less heat. All SDs were meant to be FX-57s so they will natrually OC higher on average.

Another difference:

The sandiego has sse3

The clawhammer has sse2

 

the clawhammer was the older core. clawhammer=130nm proccess and SD 90nm (current)

 

sd hands down

also original purchase price.

 

clawhammers were top the line when used for the FX-55. the san diego version was NOT top of the line when used on the FX-55... the FX-57 was.

 

 

these places are blowing those chips out NOW to cut thier losses before the price drops too much further.
