that's what I am thinking too.
there is some problem or someone lied (amd or the slides are fakes).

but.. BD was for q2, then step to "60-90 days" from 1st june.. now from q3 to q4.
I think amd knows the problems, if there are problems, and they have not found these problems yesterday..
So I hope that the problems, that are big if we have less performance than thuban, had been solved in this 6 months of delay.

If the performance are these, even if only cinebench (ok, this is only one bench but... it is deep under the amd estimated performance) is worse than thuban, IMHO amd should not release bd, even if this is price competitive, because every review will kick it because, the delays, the silence (last official statement "60-90 days from 1st june", then from q3 to q4 without ONE official word) the hype created by the "return of the fx comics" and the world record, will affect against amd.

And we are talking about the "top" 8 core cpu..
I cannot think the fx 4xxx should perform less than a phenom II 955..

But I remember that movieman talked about bulldozer like a winner.. I hope he's right.
