SSE3 for AMD64

I'm not quite ready to upgrade yet, but I've heard that AMD has planned a new set of processors with SSE3 support and enhanced memory controller...

Does anyone have an idea of when that might be due?

Will it be a winchester enhancement or a different package?

thanks
 
All indications say that it (and the improved memory controller, and the strained silicon) will be on the E0 stepping, shipping in volume 2005Q3.

Or something like that.
 
The new cores are San Diego and Venice (FX and 64) both are to have SSE3 support and other improvements. They will use socket 939.
Search Anandtech for SSE3 and you should find the best answer to the question.

Yep. And according to this roadmap, Venice (Winchester refinement) is coming sometime next quarter.

E0 is Intel, if i am not mistaken.
