I'm guessing this is the last CPU AMD is coming out with that'll support ddr2 modules. At fitting way to move from am2+ to am3 only support.

The cost worries me since most people I know (including myself) bought Phenom II over i7 was due to cost. If the 1075T is around $550, that's a lot of cash for just a cpu vs an i920 + decent mobo. Unless Thuban will get at least 4.0ghz on air, I don't see a ton of people spending that much money on it.

I've been very excited about this chip, but you guys are right, this needed to be out 2 or 3 months ago.

ajaidev, I agree with your baselines. Seems AMD still has the edge for people who want entry level good processors. The athlon x4 630 and x2 555BE see to be the key. For $100, you really can't beat it.
