Same die as in Opteron.
Sure.

So the bin isn't all that narrow.
How do you know?

It goes down to 1.4 GHz.
Hopefully not. Thats what came out half a year ago.

OTOH, it is save to say there is nothing coming out right now which would allow to be specified @2,4GHz - because FX would not have been necessary in this case.

Optimistically, 90% are at 2 GHz, 5% @ 2,2 and 5% @1,8. (That is if yield management systems work exactly as they are advertized. Which I doubt.)

Ok, realistically 90% are 1,8 and 2,0 binsplits and 2,2 and 1,6 are 5% each.

Tomorrow's imminent update of AMDs pricelist will give us a better idea of what current binsplits are.
