Just got my AMD settlement check for my FX-8350. A whopping $30.42

But hey... it's free money. :D



/e It was a class action lawsuit about AMD BSing everyone about the core count in the bulldozer and piledriver CPUs.

Now find the thread where you stated how much everyone was going to get.

Who knows. It's so much money, I'll probably need an accountant to help me with that. :lol:

You mean the thread where I said what AMD said everyone would get. And where you stated the incredibly obvious fact that folks probably wouldn't get the whole $300... like this was news that you alone were party to?






tl;dr It's a totally free $30. I'm not one to shake a stick at free money. Especially since I'm still running the FX-8350, and it does all I need really. :)

What exactly was this for? I purchased a few 8320/8320e and 6300’s in the past.

Obvious? I mean that's not how I recall you taking my contribution to the thread at all.
In any event maybe now you can afford to eat unprocessed foods.

amd lied about their core counts in the fx series processors
the 8000 lines were really just quad cores with really bad multi threading

people sued them

people won

people are getting checks now

I'm not sure if you could file so many claims.
Also its already done so you missed it.

Tbh I'd be too lazy to file claims anyway.
