That's no sense because AMD has no reason to make chip whos discard his own conception. Shared resources in module isn't that much problem for variety of workloads. Because of that, BD must have little stronger per thread, per core IPC, and much stronger per module IPC. In contrary whole BD concept is nonsense and AMD R&D are completly fools, because they can "upgrade" 10h to eight cores and turbo core 2 logic. That hypothetical X8 could outpace SB in multithreading.
