I think AMD have simply come up with a solution superior to hyperthreading.
So far, it looks like a BD module will have no throughput advantage when running two threads versus a comparably clocked SB core with HT. However, with one thread,SB will have a significant advantage. So it seems to me that the wide core + SMT strategy is superior to the AMD's dual narrow integer core CMT.
