Re: Where's bulldozer?

Set to sample early next year, with general availability to end users at the end of the year:

AMD SAID yesterday that it will release samples of processor chips built with its Bulldozer and Bobcat CPU cores to computer makers early in 2010....

...The Bobcat core has a sub-1W capable core with four integer and two floating-point instruction pipelines.

The Bulldozer core is a Bobcat with another four-pipeline integer unit added. Instead of having one combined integer and floating-point scheduler, Bulldozer has two integer schedulers that share a single floating-point scheduler.

Processors incorporating multiple Bulldozer and Bobcat cores will be built on a 32nm silicon on insulator (SOI) process using high-K metal gates.
