I don't buy that. There are always new steppings, typically every 6 to 9 months. However, new architectures have big increases in performance. Speed bumps are typically 3-5%. That sounds completely backwards.

We will still have both ACP and TDP. With Turbo CORE off, the power will be ACP. Wtih Turbo CORE on, the power will look more like TDP, but will not reach TDP in most cases.
