Not that I doubt you because I find your info to be generally spot on but explain to me whey they announced 3 months after debut that the Becktons are going to 32nm?
What I saw is that the quad Beckton systems were power hogs( 1300w at load) and we're getting their asses handed to them in many benchmarks by AMD's quad MC systems..
Sort of said to me they realised they made a big boo-boo and were fixing it.
