But yes,you are correct,there is no more time for a new stepping.
Actually, Phenoms did leak out (Agena) and that was a big flop (B2 that is)

AMD has learnt to shut up, but maybe in the face of Nehalem, one image can speak enough.

However I still think this is an unintentional leak. Very unintentional. Or the poster has access to the fabs/ is an OEM partner.

I mean, RV770 was gawdawesome and most of you guys didn't knew it until the benchmarks came. Even the partners didn't know!

Remember the GT200 superiority and nVidia blowing ATI off planet earth?
