Graphs shown are at 2.6GHz. How long before we see those in the channel? Why boast performance of a product you are not releasing? Oh, I know why -- some people won't notice the clock difference and buy the 2.0's thinking they are this fast. Sounds like an attempt at false advertising to me...
Unfortunately, Barcelonas test results are estimated performance of the chip at 2.60GHz based on internal AMD emulations, whereas the first quad-core processors from AMD due to be available in September will only hit frequencies of up to 2.0GHz. ... no quad-core AMD Opteron products with higher than 2.0GHz clock-speeds are projected until Q4 2007.
