It's too simplistic to say it's all just down to bandwidth/locks and how would you go about proving the incremental effect of either on performance ? You could just as simply argue that it's all done to cache or lack of it. And if the top end of your predictions come true, then Nehalem opens up a 20% lead vs. the current situation. Don't you think that eventuality would seriously impact AMD's already difficult server situation? Not as much as not having quad-cores at all ;-). But yeah, Nehalem will not be good for AMD and they really do need Bulldozer asap.
