That's a straight-forward roadmap for the CPUs. But what will happen for the APUs?
2x CCX + IGP or 1x CCX + larger IGP. Perhaps both. That is the question. I'm leaning toward the first, since Intel already has 6 core CPUs in their mainstream lineup. But then AMDs 4C/8T RR holds up pretty well against the non-HT Intel 6 cores. So it could go both ways.
A hypothetical 8C/16T with an 768SP IGP APU would make a nice chip. Though it would be handicapped by memory bandwidth.
