Depends on the design change. What's going to be changed besides the benchmarks

I didn't say the design was going to be changed..... Did I say that.... I don't remember saying that.... Nope, not me, didn't say that at all.....

I said "based on the assumption" that the design isn't changing. There's been plenty of reports and speculation about what was left out of P4 to bring down the die size, and what might be put back in if the die was smaller.

That's all I was referring to. I Didn't say any of it has been done......

Jim, <What's going to be changed besides the benchmarks.>

Not even the benchmarks are changing. If you look at the benchmark suites used in 3rd-party testing these days, half of the benchmarks are already over a year old. This even includes the gaming benchmarks like Unreal and Quake, and you'd think those kind of benchmarks would be ahead of the curve, no?
