Shanghai / Moscow 07: Production and launch in November
A seconder has confirmed the initial
story that Phenom FX will come in October. It will be sampled around
the RD790 motherboard, the hard launch comes later and the NDA will
expire on the middle of November. A lot of people mentioned 12th
of November as the day D but this date can change in a second.
The clock speed will remain in the 2.2 to
2.4GHz range, as the company simply cannot go much faster than that with
the current BA revision.
Even Q4 will be extremely tough for AMD
as Intel will simply win due to its superior clocks and Intel still hasn't
even announced its 45 parts that will be even faster and more power
efficient.
