maybe x86 is dead? Seems pretty inefficient to me, that requires huge amount of transistors and power for a lot of discrete instructions, most of them already obsolete and barely used.

FM2+ Surely will receive an 8 core w/out APU Steamroller cores or something like that.

Maybe a retro compatible FM3 socket could bring quad Channel DDR3 for us. 256-bit Ram bandwidth will be great for 8-cores Steamroller and APUs purpose also.
