Do you see much improvement over their current High End processors with this.?

"Do you see much improvement over their current High End processors with this.?"
It doesnt sound like there is much of a performance increase other than an upgraded GPU.
Considering that is the typical bottleneck in most systems, I can see this being a good call.
And with the socket launching with "quad-and six-core CPUs (with Hyper-Threading so eight and 12 execution units)" and possibly 8 cores, the GPU will most likely continue to be the bottleneck for the foreseeable future. ;)
However, it also means the shelf-life of the P55 chipset has just been diminished considerably.
