There's a difference between public and confidential information, quite a huge one at that. Public information is almost like a promise, while confidential information is only an estimate to help partners anticipate the coming of a new product. Confidential information is much more likely to change - granted, not just like that, but you definitely can't pin AMD down on it as this info isn't meant as such a promise.Quote:

Then AMD still needs to approve launch. Expect May at the very earliest - if these slides are still up to date (and also not fake), that is.

Iommu was the only thing I didn't know the exact details of when I made my statement. After some preliminary research that is something I'm actually excited for and see as an important feature being implemented. Everything else didn't impress me.Quote:

would it delay again
rather in may

dont panic, AMD is last year stroneger and stronger. Really think, Zambezi will leader with Gulftowns in multithreading - in 2011 year
wow Bulldozer... I first heard of Bulldozer when i was a little kid. I always thought DNF would be released before Bulldozer, i was wrong apparently.
BD codename was mentioned,for the first time, in 2007 so you couldn't possibly hear it when you were a kid(or maybe you could,are you a kid now :) ?)
BD on 45nm was scheduled for late 2009 but was canceled. This BD version,done on 32nm and scheduled for Q2 2011,is much improved design based on the first(canceled) version. So a delay is 1.5 years or so,from late 2009 to early 2011. I can't see any DNF theme in BD development,at all.
Zambezi 8 cores have a release date, What about 8 Core SB's? All we hear about is 1155.. Anything?
September supposedly?Quote:

No 8 cores SB for 1155, it's only for 2 cores and 4 cores
It's only for 1356 with 6 cores and 8 cores for Extreme Edition
Q3 2011 apparentlyQuote:

Has no future? They're releasing the 990x surely cant be that bad.. No reviews or tests as with the LGA2011..
what price range will Zambezi 8 cores be? around 600$ maybe ?
1356/66 has a future, theres nothing wrong with the socket. Instead LGA 2011 is just a rumor, and its been rumors about LGA2011 will come with ivy bridge in 2012. Theres also been rumors about SB with 4-8 cores will use 1356/66 socket. NOTHINGS written in stone, its all rumors.Quote:

no...SB is only 1155 LGA...At 4Q 2011 or 1Q 2012 we will see new LGA 2011 with IB CPUs...Its a bit change...
AND NOW BACK TO BULLDOZER CHIP :).
No ivybrdige will come first for S1155, S2011 will get SB. Its the same as it was with nehalem/westmere. The only difference is, that this time consumer products are released first and servers come later.Quote:
