So there is going to be Gulftown 6 core / 12 thread 1366 socket and Clarkdale 2 core 4 thread 1156 socket + gpu .

but will there be any quad cores 4 cores 8 threads 32 nm as on intels road map does not state nothing about them ?
 
What? AMD have several 32nm chips planned, but they're not using TSMC for them... or anything any more i believe. They'll be switching to The Foundry Company. Plan it right and they could take the performance crown again.
 
Well Intel's 32nm chips will be coming out in Q1 2010 at the latest. AMD will have 32nm somewhere in 2010 but Bulldozer won't be coming until 2011. The best thing AMD can do for 2010 is to scale their current PhenomII on 32nm which won't offer anything earth-shuttering that will rival Intel's 32nm processors.

I think l shall keep this Q6600 until either Bulldozer or Sandy Bridge are out :)

What makes you think that? They've been using much the same architecture since early Athlon era, maybe they'll bless the next decade with a new one? That will blow Intel's offering away, much like the early Athlon's did...
