its 6 core processor, its not cheap but great value for its performance.. tsk tsk
Sana di pumalo ng 11K yung local price ng 1500X (U.S. $189 == ~PHP 9500) kasi ang layo nung local prices nung Ryzen 7 compared sa SRP ng newegg di tulad sa Intel dikit yung local and international price. Balak ko sana palitan yung curren system ko, hinihintay ko nalang talaga yung quad-core w/ smt variants ng Ryzen next month.
paps di nga pumalo ng 11k.. nasa mga 10,500 lang naman haha. not very amd pricing you know!
