AMDs chief focus is going to be in the attendant market. Memorize this: A Phenom II is the same CPU as an Opteron corresponding just priced for customers. If anything I would wait for the 5870X2 to be the main on in 2010 then the 5890 and possibly 5890X2. Probably won’t observe much of a gaming boost from AMD pending R900 which might not be out up to 2011 since Nvidia’s G300 is not set up to next year and all ATI will have to do is a revive of the 5800 to wait in the game.
