We've learned that AMD's dual-core 45nm might actually come at some decent speeds. AMD was struggling to launch Phenom II, Deneb core at 3GHz and it will manage to do it at launch.

At June time, probably at Computex, AMD will finally reveal its new K10.5, 45nm dual-core. It will shortly launch Kuma, 65nm dual K10, but this CPU will be limited to 2.7GHz speed for the time being.

Regor, dual-core K10.5 at 45nm, will probably go over 3GHz but at this time, we are not aware of the exact clocks, nor does AMD want Intel to know just yet. AMD is very late with its products but at the same time it looks that 2009 will be a year when it will have much better product lineup that will help it in the fight against Intel.
