Still no one wants to believe it. "Komodo is not an APU blablabla.."
Because it isn't. It's listed as a CPU in the codenames list you provided.

And the APU bulldozer that AMD representative is talking about is Trinity, also listed in the codnames list, as an APU. It might fit into the FM1 socket Llano will be sitting in, but nothing is sure. Certainly not adding a PCIe controller into Komodo next year, so hold on a bit till you say "told you so".

Meanwhile, Anand has some fresh news: http://www.anandtech.com/show/4389/c...o-motherboards

The other thing I did hear at the show floor regarding Bulldozer was about its clock speed. Current B1 stepping parts are easily hitting 3.8GHz which is what the high end SKU may actually ship at (with turbo support up to 4.2GHz). I'm waiting for more confirmation but it sounds like Bulldozer will at least clock very high.
LOL, Anand fell for the Turbo too. But at least this could explain the leaks we have seen, they were all at 3.8Ghz in CPUZ, not an idle state... cause they were overclocked! So if they were true, then it's not looking bad.

BTW. notice how that article mentions Llano boards in the title, but there's none of it in the Article itself? Just two Intel boards, the Llano ones are in the gallery...
