Please explain to me the difference between a Barcelona die and a Phenom die. A shipped Barcelona die needs to function at speed with another (2xxx) or 7 other (8xxx) parts. It also needs to run within a TDP limit. Neither is true of the demoed Phenom. And, they would not allow benchmarks on it... wonder why not? I see nothing that would prevent AMD from releasing 3 GHz Barcelona benchmarks at launch, do you? See above. Also, releasing benchmarks for parts that are 50% faster than those you are shipping looks pathetic. There isn't any Barcelona over 2.6GHz even on a roadmap, as far out as H108.
