RDM,

Cooling problems may exist that shorten the expected lifetime of the chip, for example. Redesign of production packaging to help the cooling may take time.

I based my argument on assumption that AMD makes some copper parts in Dresden that do work at 1.5 GHz without any problems. If AMD does not the chips, or if the chips don't work reliably, then of course there is no point in speculating how they could be sold.
