Milo, Re: "Don't you mean Clawhammer will have 2 HT Connections as opposed to the 3 HT Links"

No, I mean 1 (one) link. Show me where on the presentation it says that Clawhammer will have 2.

Keep in mind that slide 41 is only an "example" of Hammer architecture configured for 2-way. The actual implementation may look more like the 760MP. In fact, that would be the least expensive way to design it, as leveraging from the 760MP would allow a lot of code re-use. It would also be the quickest to market.

A 760MP like chipset will have two HT links coming from the Northbridge (or HT Tunnel, if you prefer), but only one link will be active per processor. Having two links would complicate validation, and AMD wants this out to market quickly.
