iBUYPOWER Adds Six-Core AMD CPU To New Gaming Desktops

Another new CPU launch, another new wave of desktop PC releases that offer it. CyberPower kicked things off this morning with new machines based around AMD's new Phenom II X6 1090T, and now iBUYPOWER is following up with upgrades to a few systems of their own. The Chimera 2-Q, Gamer Fire and Gamer HAF systems are all seeing updates, giving consumers the ability to buy a bargain-priced six-core chip with their new pre-built desktop.



The Phenom II processors all feature AMD’s Turbo Core Speed Technology, which automatically overclocks the CPU for a quick burst of speed when opening a program or batch processing images and files.  The intelligent technology can increase the processor speed by as much as 19%, and these new systems get started at just $999, or far less than similar rigs with quad-core Intel chips. AMD may have just started a low-price revolution in the gaming desktop arena, and that's definitely something we can get behind.
