First of all this is not news,like some of the users have stated. Xbit is just slow as a snail and likes to "produce" their own news. Orochi(a bulldozer based core) was pushed to 2011 a while back,and this has all to do with redesigning it and pushing it to a mature 32nm process as opposed to 45nm one. AMD said in Nov. that Orochi will not be a 2010 thing,but Xbit failed to grasp that one.
Second ,AMD won't do the new design and new process launch at the same time.This brings a lot of risks to the table and AMD will never do this. AMD will probably ramp up 32nm production with a 32nm shrink of Deneb\Shanghai in Q3/Q4 2010 and make a 4/6 core parts on it first,before they touch Bulldozer with it.
So Xbitlabs just found out what many informed people already know from November time.Kudos to them![]()
