Not grumpy at all.
Sarcasm never translates well, I suppose.
Honestly. I wasn't really directing that @ CDdude either...
But that fact of the matter is that the design goals for these chips are pretty specific, and far from new. They have a final destination, and THAT is basically set in stone. At this point, we are merely waiting for final numbers and yeilds, IMHO. Until those figures are available, any talk about these chips is moot, even if the embargo is up in a couple of days.
And frankly, I think current cpus are basically fast enough for that 10% of the market that is home users. So at this ponit, they really are focused on that 90%...computing had a pretty major paradigm shift a few years ago, and people seem to have missed it.
Bobcat...ugh...can you say Iphone-type devices?
Bulldozer...is about 2 years too late.
But me, as a person who wants good performance, have hopes that they put out something good, something affordable and something that i would want to switch over to from my i7.. of course it's to early to tell, but one can hope right?
I think your hopes are mis-placed, is all. Really, why would you need more than a 1090t?
Why would you need more than an i920 @ stock?
