FX62 AM2 Review
http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/cpu/display/amd-socket-am2.html
Thank goodness for DDR2-800 4-4-4 memory, or else the scores would have been utterly pitiful.
I like this line:
Our Athlon 64 FX-62 test sample overclocked to 3,075MHz and working under full load consumed 192W of power! And this is a way beyond the requirements that AMD has set for the new Socket AM2 platform.

Oops, it doesn't look like we'll be seeing 3.0GHz any time soon. And what about the power consumption of the FX-62 at stock?
It gives the new Presler stepping a run for its money. Congrats to AMD for aiming to beat Presler in everything, including power. Too bad Conroe is going to seriously lose to the FX in this regards.
