Scandal: Nehalem-EX completely stole AMD's Montreal design
MCM based, Montreal processor are actually two 45nm Shanghais on a module, each with 6MB of L3. Of course, G3MX memory buffer extenders enables 16 DDR3 registered memory modules. That is actually deployment of HT 3.o and memory unganging, so each of 8 cores has its own memory channel or two. Actually we have that way 8 independent servers, without memory congestion. That will make AMD virtualisation fly.
AMD Montreal is in Q1 2009. Intel Nehalem-EX Beckton is in 2H 2009. Of course copy can't be announced before the original. Here is the thief name. Click on the picture below to enlarge and compare.
And here is what has happened to Intel's own design creativity, just at the Montreal F1 racing ring:
