This is overall good news, I'm very curious to see what the excavator performance is like, perhaps compared to piledriver that is the 8370.

That is a nice performance improvement over the last cooler for sure.

I love the new cooler the old one was kinda sad, I don't know about godaveri apus but the 5800k I currently still have has huge throttling issues even with a 240mm aio.

Wraith bundle vs Wrath bundle

I don't know. I kinda like the sound of "Wrath" bundle.

The new board from ASUS with 970 chipset is Asus 970 Aura https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/970-PRO-GAMING-AURA/ In the AMD powerpoint slide is listed from Asus an old board M5A97 Either is a new revision of the M5A97 either the 970 aura is missing from list...

It would be good to see a quad core AMD Athlon X 845 benchmarked against some other AMD and Intel chips, all clocked at the same speed. It would give a nice IPC comparison as well as potentially giving a clue about what Zen performance will be like.
