Well, even though AM3/AM3+ will be here for possibly one more CPU line(maybe even lasting for Excavator), we all know what they are going to call it(AM4, obviously). What are your thoughts on a new socket type? Do you think they are going to use AM3 for Excavator or use it for AM4 instead as a new release and hopefully more people will upgrade motherboards as well?

What do you think the new socket type will bring? Right now AMD is trying to get 10%-15% more performance in each new CPU line they are doing, but what do you think they are planning for a new socket type?! Maybe a better TDP? 75w CPU? Smaller die size? Better performance?

Discuss!
