| Different barcelona versions to be released? Is it possible that AMD is releasing different steppings/versions of the the same CPU? I mean 1.9GHz and 2.0GHz are very close and if rumors of the Inquirer are correct they seem to have much more 1.9 models than 2.0 and 2.3 models for the release date.

| It will be too little, too late. AMD will soon be out of business.

I guess ones the first CPU reviews are out communication will improve. They said they would release an 3Ghz desktop part before the year ends so no surprise about clock speeds. By the end of the year they will have a new stepping and lets hope they will be able to start produce a lot of 3GHz desktop CPU's to start the new year with enough supply so they can actually make profit for a change.

And probably some marketing about AMD not being able to reach high clock speeds. Because no one will be buying an 3.2Ghz Athlon64 when the Phenom is available.
