(assuming 3.2ghz is average agena overclock and 4ghz is average deneb overclock)
Heck, I'll just be happy if they

1) Get the thing out the door this year
2) It actually works without any embarrassing bugs
3) Is delivered with respectable clocks
4) Doesn't require a small nukular pile to run it
5) Overclocks respectably, and doesn't require LN02 to cool it
6) Actually works with the existing AM2+ boards and DDR2 8500 with little or no trouble

If they deliver this, most AMD'ers will be happy, and maybe some of the intel fambois who are broke will come back to where it all started. And maybe the shedload of AMD stock I've been buying will be worth more than the pittance it is now.

No more motherboards for me until DDR3 comes WAY down in price, and until then, its just CPUs and SSDs. So Deneb better friggin work
