And seriously do you even understand basic concept of performance per watt ?
95W TDP on SB is great because it has performance to match it.
Yet FX4 comes with 95W TDP compared to 125W for top-end FX8 while offering half it's performance.

Yeah I understand It, but this is the first time you mentioned it, I can't find anything about it in your previous comment
And wouldn't you say BD FX 8120 is way more awesome than SB because It has the same TDP yet it should be faster in multithread.

PS. Radeon 5770 says hello. How do you sell slower card at higher price point ? Simply you just stop producing 4870 and 4890 so there's no competition from your older better product.

i didn't hear anything about stopping the production of deneb

I never said it will be worse than older cpus (that would be amazing engineering achievement to make something slower than phenom II architecture in 2011). Even if only IPC increase comes from bigger cache it should be faster than Phenom II.

yeah, I have the same opinion yet you can still find people who think the IPC will be lower than the previous generation.
