1. Maybe they bring 90nm but the promised FX in 90nm has slipped from 1H 04 (originally) to Sep 04 to Dec 04 to now somtime by Q2 05.

So the watchword here is press releases aren't what's really at your retailer...

Actually I didn't remember there was any "press release" of an FX-55. Also from this article it is obvious that AMD -WILL- release FX-55 as soon as there will be some corespondingly performing Inhell chip released (ie. 3.6EE or 4.0E). Initial FX-55 will alsoi be 130nm part so don't wory about shipments. I suspect AMD already does have some thousands of such parts prepared.

2. I dont think it will be soon.....

AMD wasn't going to redesign the .13 NewCastle core for the socket 754/939 just to use it for 3 months more.
