That site is annoying. The first thing you have to do is click to close the popup ad (I thought my firefox had those disabled)

oops, says samples in Dec and volume production in April. Still probably a June-July release. And Ivy is breathing down AMD's neck.
"Earlier in the keynote, we heard that Ivy Bridge is making its way through the fabs now with production scheduled for 2H 2011"

Just want to add the site says the first *ENGINEERING SAMPLE* chips will roll off the lines in April. Intel has had Sandy samples since Q3 last year, and IIRC already has Ivy samples back.

JFAMD cleared this up like 2 months ago, BD samples where supposed to be out now IIRC, which means am3+ desktop are likely out to.

AMD is waging a massive disninformation campaing lately, either that or intel is and trying to paint AMD in a bad light or make them announce what they have comming.

everybody seems to be trying to get AMD to talk. This looks like another attempt.

my line of thought is, wait and see. I know the anticipation is driving some folks nuts though.

Why don't we all wait until the 9th with industry analyst day brings instead of following speculation on the web?

Perhaps you need the adblock extension.

Yeah.

Chrome gets the pop-up but my firefox doesn't.

Your adblock must be disabled, out-of-date or something.

I'm still doubting they can go from 2+ years behind to back in the game. I guess we shall see.
