Solid-Stark said: I wanted to point out, in case no one hasn't yet, that AMD's "Steamroller" APU wont come until 2014, that is if such APU would exist. AMD has delayed Steamroller until 2014, with "Piledirver 2.0" set for 2013 instead. Before the delay, AMD stated that 2013's APU's would not be Steamroller based, but something better than Piledriver. Now after the delay, hence, "Piledriver 2.0". |
Keep in mind several sources have said that the X720 was delayed due too poor yeilds on the chip. The question then becomes if both these things are true will MS opt to wait for Kaveri and risk letting Sony get a significant head start, or opt to use the so called "Piledriver 2.0"....
