"AMD rep. was trying to say the demos are more dog and pony than anything that shows off the performance of a quad system..."

I agree, anything is possible, memory, HTT, core clock,
performance bugs, etc., anything could be slightly
off. However, "BIOS conservativity" is usually due to real
bugs, not just to be on the safe side.

But at the end it does not matter -
the fact seems to be confirmed that the current platform
does not perform to expectations, and this time it is not
rushed by some public event deadline. Which is bad.

I wonder if this failure
is somehow related to this recent job opening at AMD:

CPG Performance Lab Manager -
"This position requires the skills necessary to plan, drive execution, analyze, and communicate a consolidated CPG Performance Plan."
