AMD Socket M2 Processor Roadmap; FX-62 and Athlon 64 X2 5200+

Socket M2, the 940 pin DDR2-ready Athlon 64 Socket, will launch a little bit later than we originally expected with mass production just starting in late April. However, even though the launch has been slightly delayed from the original March timeframe, there is still good news for those on DDR1; Socket 939 will stick around well into Q1'07 on the performance desktop - and well beyond that for Sempron. In fact, AMD's latest roadmap goes all the way to Q2'07 with Socket 939 Sempron.

The new Pacifica enabled DDR2 processor code names expected to launch during the end of Q2'06 will be:

Windsor: Dual Channel DDR2, Pacifica enabled Socket M2 dual core

Orleans: Dual Channel DDR2, Pacifica enabled Socket M2

Manila: Dual Channel DDR2 Sempron, Socket M2

Shucks I hope they also re-work the memory controller to dual controllers, by 06-07 with the way PCI-e and the up coming Vista loads, with DDR2 the single controller is gonna be a bit of a bottle neck...
 
All this while Intel is still struggling with its overrated NetBurst architecture.
Will they ever return to regain what they've lost to AMD in last few months?
I doubt so.
