Re: Well, They did so just last month.

And is why I said rarely instead of never.

It does give them over 5 times more candidates per waver compared to FAB30 X2's

But consumers don't buy CPUs based on die area. AMD's Thoroughbred was a painful example of how cheaper dies will not stop the red ink if demand isn't there.

This is you guessing. It is up to AMD to decide ultimately early September or so which percentage of a December launch (presuming HKEPC is right) should be Turion X2.

A 2007 launch is what the roadmaps at HKEPC and PC Watch are showing. AMD is on the record saying 65-nm launch would begin with Athlon 64. There was no mention of a simultaneous launch of 65-nm Turion X2. While that could change in the future, AMD is signalling now that Turion X2 won't launch until Q1 2007 at the earliest.
