No mention of speeds, but suffice it to say they have operational 45nm CPUs.

As quoted by LowRun......"So, we are one week past AMD's worst case scenario for BD's availability but they don't feel like communicating about the delay, I suppose AMD must be removed from the reliable sources list for AMD's products launch dates"
I clicked the amd link and wanted to read the q&a on 45nm but got a 404, same for the press release link.

Adobe is working on Flash Player support for 64-bit platforms as part of our ongoing commitment to the cross-platform compatibility of Flash Player. We expect to provide native support for 64-bit platforms in an upcoming release of Flash Player following the release of Flash Player 10.1.

So other than a process shrink positive stuff, what new features can we expect from it?
The L3 array is in the NB clock domain, so I don't expect to be in sync with the cores in this 45nm spin off. And above this, K10 has to maintain a specific (async) clock rate for the NB so to avoid weird DDR2 speeds, as it was the case in K8 architecture.

Gigabyte MA790X-UD4P//Dell Latitude D620
Phenom II BE 940//Core 2 Duo 2.0Ghz
2x2GB OCZ Reaper//1GB PC5400
640GB WD Blue//80gb 7200 rpm hdd
Radeon 4850//Geforce 7300 Go
DDR2 clocks speed isn't reason for async speed of L3 in comparison to the cores.
As you aware K10 can independently clock all four cores, but since they must continue to communicate despite different clocks, clock of L3 must stay unchanged…
It would be excellent if L3 would run in sync with cores, but 'cos of thermal budget you must make tradeoff there, and it's proven that gain from core clocking is always bigger then from L3 clocking.

Doesn't look like they have everything working quite yet.• Ultra-low-k Dielectrics. In some later 45nm products, AMD plans on using ultralow-k dielectrics to reduce wire delays by as much as 15 percent and enable greater overall processor performance.
• High-k/metal Gates. As part of AMD’s Continuous Transistor Improvement (CTI) approach, AMD has the option to introduce high-k/metal gates into 45nm production to further enhance transistor performance. The “gate first” approach, developed with IBM, is designed to provide a simpler, less time consuming way to migrate to high-k metal gate technology and secure benefits that include improved performance and reduced power consumption.
Edit, but I must say, the chips do look a little more gracefully put together then barcy, and the extra cache could be very cool.

AMD Q&A PDFA common misconception is that being first to a new process technology generation is
the fundamental determinant of performance and energy efficiency leadership. AMD has
proven this to be false.
Rather than the more costly and higher-risk method of making a full technology
transition every two years, AMD uses a unique and highly efficient method called
Continuous Technology Improvement (CTI).
CTI allows us to maximize the benefits and increase the return on investment of a single
process technology generation for as long as possible by evolving and improving the
transistor designs within that generation. This is why at many points in our history our
processors and platforms have remained competitive, even when compared against those
from our competitors based on the next process technology generation.

...so it means end of the summer we will see some power point presentation without any real benches ,then late winter next year(maybe next CeBit!?) a "running" PC with the new cpu inside will be secretly demoed in a dark room under full nda ofcourse and nobody will be allowed closer than 5steps from it...and maybe,maybe 2 years from now if the stars are aligned in the right configuration we will be able to buy some "early" released cpus which will hopefully work as advertised...
great stuff,im really excited,promise i wont be buying any Intel Quads runnin 4GHZ at 1.35v in the meantime.All Hail AMD

"Generally speaking, CMOS power consumption is the result of charging and discharging gate capacitors. The charge required to fully charge the gate grows with the voltage; charge times frequency is current. Voltage times current is power. So, as you raise the voltage, the current consumption grows linearly, and the power consumption quadratically, at a fixed frequency. Once you reach the frequency limit of the chip without raising the voltage, further frequency increases are normally proportional to voltage. In other words, once you have to start raising the voltage, power consumption tends to rise with the cube of frequency."

This is exciting. Deep down a small part of me wants to play with a Phenom and K10.5 might give me the option to do it without the performance part of me disowning the rest of me.
It is a very good thing my name isn't in a darker color or you'd have a temporary vacation. Rawr

Architecure > clockspeeds?
K8 vs netburst?
True, both off them but they do not have any bearing on that snip. Snip is about an excuse on how they can not keep up with intel's design teams and fabrication plants simply because their r&d is way way to low which they offcourse don't want to admit to so they want you to believe it's intentional.
Where is the demo? All I see here is a press release and some die photos.
