Bx chips do not have performance bugs , they have only different scaling capabilities.End of story.
The B2 chips still has the memory controller bugs.

According to Graham, the BA stepping solves the memory performance issues.

Just look at the review! You can tell something is wrong with the memory performance of these chips.

The latency benches that Tech-Report conducted were abismal.

The SSE optimized benches also weren't up to par, considering the doubled SSE throughput.

If this is the final performance we can expect from the K10, then AMD screwed up horribly.
