Time for a refresh of the FX line too....
Please incorporate everything you have learned since the original release of 990fx....
Perhaps your new power phases can alleviate the LLC issues the current 990 UD line is plagued with....
Abu Dhabi (existing Opteron): 32 nm, 12/16 Piledriver cores
Warsaw (Opteron for 2014): 32 nm, 12/16 Piledriver cores
That's just a facelift, not a new CPU. And for the FX line AMD haven't yet announced anything beyond Vishera, and there's a reason for that... They also haven't yet announced any chipsets beyond 990FX, or any platforms beyond Volan (Vishera + 990FX).
