Re: Unit capacity will depend a great deal on product mix, and the extra transistors that may need to be on those units... like bigger cache.

AMD's capacity will also depend a great deal on cache density. So far AMD has disappointed in that area. If AMD could get their L2 cache density close to that of Intel's they would be able to double the L2 cache size while maintaining roughly the same core size.

"is AMD going to be able to ramp without dedicating resources to chipsets or other building blocks?"

Probably. They fab that out now, why change?
