Likely early 2011
We’ve learned that AMD’s truly next generation CPU codenamed
Bulldozer should be out of the labs in late 2010. This is not Deneb / Phenom done right, it's a complete new architecture.
Since this is AMDs brand new architecture, the company is
optimistic about it and we believe that initial shipments won’t start until much
later in 2011.
We also learned that Bulldozer at start comes as an eight
core CPU, but we would not exclude the possibility of other core iterations. Intel
plans to have Sandy Bridge, its new 32nm architecture in 2011 and plans a refresh
in 22nm called Ivy Bridge.
