Albert, Re: If 760 is delayed amd should clearly state that and put forward new release schedule.

My point is that AMD 760 was never really launched and this "delay" is only stating the obvious. But it's important that it's ofificially "out" to allow benchmark comparisons with P4 favorable for the Athlon. While I don't like paper launches I think from an PR standpoint it's clever and important this time. It was pretty clear on Monday that we wouldn't see DDR boards in volume before December, so The Register isn't telling anything new. I don't think there is a major flaw in the chipset, it just needs some more time (or to quote Jerry: They just need to spin the silicon one more time).

damage control?

The alleged problem was only reported few hours ago. Would you allow AMD a couple of days to get some ideas where the problems lie if indeed there are problems, and then determine the approximate length of time to fix them, or should they admit problems in the next few minutes and stop all shipments? Boy, AMD has the most demanding shareholders in the entire stock market!
