They avoid mentioning the socket type in the kind of slides they usually wouldn't. Making substantially different CPU dies for 1-2P server and client, it must be a first one for AMD.

I smell a new socket for Komodo, and it's part of my 2010 rant: AM3+ is a bad compromise.
I've still haven't seen any official slide or confirmation about so called socket AM3+.

and:

"“Zambezi”
Market: Desktop
What is it? four-, six-, or eight-core 32-nm AM3 socket desktop processor based on the “Bulldozer” processor architecture for the enthusiast market. Planned for introduction: 1H 2011"

So maybe there won't be any AM3+ for Zambezi.
