but they preform identically anyway?
Very close. Link
Actually I would not be surprised if these leaks would have come from AMD themselves.
Did not happen for years that AMD had cpu in the top 3 selling chips in Japan. now they hold the first place.
These days better sell even cheaper than keep it in stock.
AMD does not really loose money on it.
Our old AM2+ even some AM2 boards got Bios updates for AM3 cpus so we could use those.
The price difference between SB600 with 9xx cpu and an SB750 with 7xx/8xx is so small that it might not be money what people are after just the fun or to get something for free.
I would not risk a 4th core to save 20$.
