I believe the 2b transistor count was meant for Trinity with an on-die graphics processor, but their marketing people screwed up.
Don't be so sure, read thisAMD Bulldozer & Bobcat

QUOTE(Eugene91 @ Dec 3 2011, 10:28 AM) Well because AMD promotes it as a gaming proc? Their demos with Dirt 3 showing utilisation of all the 8 cores? hmm < ? Only used 1 senses to dictate the usage of the processor ? Well I guess All SP does that nawh ...QUOTE(yinchet @ Dec 3 2011, 01:14 PM) I think there is a huge improvement on the CPU just that Intel held back. IB is running on 77 TDP "could be largely factor by its IGP power consumption" and still performance slightly higher than SB. Ivy Bridge running on 77 TDP bcoz of their changed of manufacturing structure they used they claimed energy efficient 3D Tri-gate method to manufacture their Ivy Bridge . For their IGP segment i3 with HD 3000 same graphical performance as an A4 series Llano proc , its just unbelievably disappointing .with the disappointment on BD performance and power consumption and also not to overshadow SB-E probably the reason y Intel held back. Intel could make a 95 TDP IB but it would seriously destroy SB-E.  Anyway it just my opinion.  Regardless it is interesting to see Intel put more effort on its IGP and it just matter of times for intel to catch up with red camp and green camp. |

On Trinity, A4, A6, A8 will still continue. interested to know how is the new A10 performance. need to wait at least AMD have release testing/engineering sample to reviewers for testing. |

New update: AMD has decided to stop shipping Phenom IIs and focus their firepower on BD and Llano. It will take around half a year for Phenom IIs to run dry. Those on Athlon, time to upgrade.

They need to ramp up Trinity production to meet OEM demand, since the 45nm and 32nm chips are produced in the same facility.Here's an interesting thing to ponder: some rumours suggest a Piledriver-derived CPU in the Xbox 720. Would this make AMD the CPU for gamers again, due to future console ports being more optimized for their architecture? |

If you want integrated graphics that can do games at 720p smoothly, the A8 is a pretty good buy.
FX-4100 is only better if you don't care about the power consumption AND if you're going to overclock it a lot. If the integrated graphics isn't for games, and you're not overclocking, the i3 2100 is a much better buy since its processor is faster than those two AMD ones at stock speeds. |

Some testing by forumer in overclock.net
I think the patch performance are noticeable for software using less than 8 threads, examples being games. |

Initial tests showed that it could improve performance by up to seven percent, before it was pulled -- Microsoft conceding that it wasn't quite ready for prime-time.
