i dont know why my 8350 code name read as zambezi, i always thought it should be vishera.. do i have a cheap verison of 8350? whats the diff tho, since i just bought it maybe i can return it or something. i just dont have to use a low end model of 8350 while the new one is out there. thanks
 
And where do you read that code name? This name is not codes in the cpu, so it comes from a translation table in the software. Either your software doesn't know of Vishera cores, because it's to old or you actually have a FX-8150 with Zambezi cores.

I have the asus crosshair mobo, one of the software come with should fx8350 Zambezi, but I havent install one of the item from the software( its like amd something I forget the exact word), because when I click on it, it ask me to install catalyst. I don't want to do that yet because I m waiting on my new video card.
