Venice core is the Winchester with an enhanced Memory Controller and SSE3 correct? :confused:
 
the memory controller inhancements are relating to integrated graphics on motherboards for OEMs. Not exactly earth shattering for people who overclock. a newer stepping would be nice , perhaps it would overclock better. The next big step for hammers is strained silicon on insulator. That should help things out better , maybe amd will get cpu clocks up past 2.8ghz this year.
 
Venice is the 512k L2 E0 stepping,
San Diego is the 1MB L2 E0 stepping.
 
How big of a difference would you see in games between the 1MB L2 and 512KB L2 versoins? Whats the price difference?
 
same difference you see now. and who knows about the price. my guess is that the 1mb versions are only going to the fx's

and jason: probably sometime this month or next

have a look at this, we were discussing strained silicon going into E0
