maybe, i believe it all depends on the leakage, as amd has brought the leakage down on phenom2's the clock speeds have been rising with out a process shrink. we could see something similar with gf100, i believe that's what lordec911 has been hinting at with the Bx clues... ati admitted after it launched cypress that it had troubles with channel width and via failure, that could also have something to do with the delays and clock speeds for gf100. time will tell...
