thats huge for an 8 core, i.e. 4 module processor. Taking it to compete with Sandy Bridge which is 4c/8t with IGP and yet under 220mm^2
 
A lil birdy had told me the chips have been delayed to October 1st week :(

I think I will buy SB next weekend, cant wait anymore...
 
what is happening AMD?
Date has been further pushed back to 26th Sept..
I've got this from wiki page of bulldozer..
Its less then month remaining in launch and still no benchmark!
This seriously makes me think like it is failed to post their mark..
I hope i am wrong..

I really doubt that. They know they are pushing all the waiting customers off to Intel. I think they are realizing that they can't charge the price they had earlier planned because the performance of these chips is sub-par.
 
The thing is that Bulldozer has been delayed so much, it doesn't make much of a difference even if they do manage to beat Sandy bridge in terms of performance. Intel will be ready with their new chip very soon.
