The two strangest things that I have read from this article is that AMD 64’s (4800+, 4400+ and 4000+) on the 65nm will all use non-integer clock multipliers, and only CPUs with even CPU multipliers can run at DDR2-800. All odd clocked (5000+) and half-clocked processors (4800+, 4400+, 4000+) run at a slower than DDR2-800 speed.

AMD had better get their act together. Maybe they have something under wraps, but from what that article says, it sounds like they're going in reverse.

It seems like since AMD bought out ATI, AMD is shifting its gears more towards this fuison apu technology then the current cpu technology now. They are pretty much doing away with multiplie core technology and banking on this fusion technology. AMD said multiplie core technology is like the ghz race as in there is going to come a time where you can do many diff things at once with less. They feel that a gpu/cpu is the next evolutionary step in cpus to do just that.
