According to Digitimes, 45nm Penryn desktop processor family that is scheduled to come out in Q1 2008 will include 9 models from the start. Five of them will have two computational cores and four will be quad-core solutions. The maximum working frequency of the Penryn processors will hit 3.16GHz at launch.

More importantly,
According to sources, until Nehalem CPUs come out, Penryn will increase their clock speeds up to 4GHz. This will be the startup frequency for Nehalem processors in H2 2008.
:shocked: :shocked: :shocked:

Considering the fact people still buy those crappy Celerons and Pentium 4's, I don't think there will be much of an issue :P

    I'll buy even P3s :P

    On a lighter note, where do Intel get their code names, Kentsfield,Wolfdale,Clovertown,Allendale Looks like names of towns.

    Looks like there is a trend to name processors by cities, I thought AMD would take a intel bashing path (sledgehammer sounds good) :lol:

    I'm only concerned about the legality of Intel using SantaRosa for their new platform when AMD already has a SandaRosa processor :rolleyes:
