It sure looks dark for AMD.
But that's why I'm waiting for release. All I'm seeing are some numbers here and there from different places, some of them aren't adding up, and we all know that some of the initial batches of K10 weren't good, so how many of these numbers are from the not-so-great chips? Makes me wonder. Once the thing is released then we'll know for certain, until then it is just a lot of speculation and I'm sick of it. Sept 10th get here already darnit!

So it looks maybe these scores are done on the "broken" chips. There is hope yet. Sept 10th we'll know (or soon after).
