AMD Phenom triple core 8400 and 8600B makes it to the market

Finally after a lot of hide and seek, AMD Phenom triple core makes it to the market. All though as an individual you may not be able to buy a Phenom triple core and build your system around it, however AMD just has confirmed that it has started shipping Triple core Phenom chips to some major PC manufactures.
Currently Dell, HP, and UK based mesh computer, are offering AMDs triple core solutions to the desktop end users.
- Dell Optiplex 740 promises to come with AMD Phenom 8400 Triple Core AM2+ with 2.1 GHz @ 3600 MHz FSB hyper transport and 1.5 MB of L2 and 2 MB of L3 cache memory.
- HP already have listed one of their business desktop model, HP AL195AW running AMD Phenom™ Triple Core 8600B (2.3 GHz, 1.5 MB L2 cache, 2 MB L3 cache 3600 MHz front side bus).
