AMD 4x4 Gaming plattform to be called “Quad-Father”

[Darksaber]

AMD has given the official name to the 4x4 gaming plattform. It will be called "Quad-Father". While PC manufacturers like Alienware and Voodoo PC will offer such PCs, it will be available as DIY kits as well. The prices are still unclear but these kits are said to start at around $1,000 Dollars.

Lol, guess I'll be sticking with my Opty 170 for a while more XD

i think it should've been the other way around, quad-father codename and then 4x4 for retail

quad-father just sounds too self absorbed and too hypey in just the name alone

i think the tech is kick ass, dont get me wrong, but quad father is meh

They will probabily change the name before it came out

i hope so. i'd sound like an idiot wishing i could buy a quad-father. pining for a quad father. being jealous of people with quadfathers...that'd be lame

[randomperson21]
