Steamroller is when, 2014? I'm going Vishera when I find out if Asus is going to give me a bios. I'm thinking they won't but I'll give them more time.

Supposed to be next year IIRC, and it is supposed to adress the l3 and prefetch instruntion issues IIRC, pile/vish was just a decent IPC bump plus more efficient i think

I think sometime like April/May next year. But the APU will be released first, just like piledriver. Suppost to have two Decoders in each module instead of one. Sorta of a back step for the module, but if it improves performance who cares. Larger L1 cache. 28nm. FX and a APU. Pretty sure the last processor for AM3+ socket, but will have a new chipset as in a 1090. Everything after Steamroller will be just a APU. But have heard that there will still be a FX APU with L3 cache but both on the same socket. FM3/AM4 or what ever they end up calling it.
