If you really think AMD is going to release a workaround at the launch then there will be many websites,including the biggest ones,which were scr*wed over by AMD since they tested the incomplete platform. This won't happen of course.

In order to get to level projected from Nov 2010 slide that was leaked,performance needs to jump up dramatically,think 40+% over this(yes this much). Not going to happen. There are only few things in a chip that can lower performance this much and still not be a bug (one of them are 2 new prefetch mechanisms AMD stated were used to offset the IPC impact of deeper pipeline;but I doubt anything is wrong or disabled,this is the final chip).
