MediaTek to launch true 8-core, 2GHz MT6592 chipset in November?

http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/07/mediatek-mt6592-8-core.jpg Samsung may already have its 8-core Exynos 5 Octa offering already, but the cunning “big.LITTLE” implementation means only up to four cores work together at any time – either the Cortex-A15 quartet or its lesser Cortex-A7 counterpart. In other words, we’d rather rename the chipset range to something like “Exynos 5 Quad Dual.” But according to recent intel coming from Taipei and Shenzhen, it looks like Taiwan’s MediaTek is well on its way to ship a true 8-core mobile chipset in Q4 this year.
