Server 45nm Xeon products based on the Penryn core will be available into production for the second half of 2007. Intel's latest desktop guidance claims 45nm desktop SKUs will also launch in late 2007, with volume shipments occuring in 2008. As it stands right now, only the mobile 45nm SKUs are expected to launch in 2008.

Penryn-based Xeon processors will utilize the same server platform as Xeon 5000, 5100 and 5300. Nehalem, Intel's next-generation microarchitecture on the 45nm node slated for 2008, will require new platform technology and is not compatible with the Penryn platform.

45nm quad-core Harpertown and dual-core Wolfdale were originally slated to spearhead the next-generation Xeon launch in Q1 2008. The existing Bensley platform, Intel 5000P chipset, will still provide the heavy lifting for volume dual-socket on 45nm Xeon. A new platform, Cranberry Lake, will replace Bensley-VS for value dual-socket Intel platforms, and will support Harpertown and Wolfdale.

VRM za Bloomfield

• Intel has released the VRM (Voltage Regulator Module) design guidelines for the next-generation Intel LGA 1366 processors, and this VRM design guide is updated from 11.0 to 11.1. The first LGA 1366 processors, code-named Bloomfield, are 45nm Quad Core based on Nehalem. This new processors contain 8-12MB L2 Cache, and the so missed Hyper-Threading technology will return in Bloomfield. New transmission protocol will be adopted to replace the Front Side Bus introduced since Pentium 4’s era. LGA 1366 will be firstly introduced for high-end market in mid-2008, while LGA 775 would stay until mid-2009 when LGA 1366 become a mainstream.

Eaglelake chipset

• Intel has completed designing their Bearlake desktop boards based on P35 and G35 chipsets with the launch on March 15th. We can expect to see a slew of Bearlake boards designs from the motherboard makers during CeBIT. Boards development for its successor "Eaglelake" are going start soon and it will be pairing up with ICH10 Southbridge to support higher FSB Penryn processors. ICH10 supports 10GB and Wireless Ethernet controllers with some new technologies to reduce CPU load and improve power consumption.

Intel will release third quarter 2007 version of Conroe deal with a new generation of FSB 1333MHz, and were named the 6050 Core 2 Duo family. According to the latest Intel processors plan 1333MHz FSB versions of the Conroe still using 65 nano process. This 1333MHz FSB Core 2 Duo lineup, includes models E6850, E6750, and E6550, which have respective clock speeds of 3GHz, 2.66GHz, and 2.33GHz with 4MB of L2 cache.



According to Asus, all P965 P5B motherboards, P5B-E, P5B-E Plus, P5B and P5B Deluxe Premium will support 1333MHz FSB.
Gigabyte Rev. version 3.3 or above models including GA-965P-S, GA-965P-DS3, GA-965P-DS3P, GA965P-DS4 and GA965P-DQ6 will support 1333MHz FSB.

At the same speed, the faster front-side bus seems to matter less.
According to HKEPC's tests, the 2.66GHz Core 2 Duo E6750 is only 1.38% faster on average than the 2.66GHz Core 2 Duo E6700.

A kakva je situacija i975X chipsetom, hoce li na njega ici 1333 FSB procevi (ako znas)?

A kakva je situacija i975X chipsetom, hoce li na njega ici 1333 FSB procevi (ako znas)?

975X has been around since the Pentium Extreme 800 series CPU; it lacks native DDR2-800 memory support as well as support for high FSB overclocking and the improved ICH8 series Southbridge. There was only one single thing that saved the 975X at first, it was the only Intel chipset to have AMD Crossfire dual graphics support but this all changed when AMD and ATI ratified P965 with Crossfire capabilities, now 975X takes a back seat to the P965.

975X bu zamijenjen sa Bearlake serijom chipseta i nisam nigde našel da bi matične bazirane na 975X dobile podršku za 1333MHZ FSB u nekoj reviziji ili s nekom novijom verzijom BIOS-a. Nažalost...

EDIT - Ispravak netočnog navoda:
Jedan od vlasnika Asus P5W DH Deluxe ploče me obavijestil da dotična ploča sa novom verzijom BIOS-a dobiva podršku za 1333MHz FSB.
Čovek je dal i link, pa provjerite.

moral bi i ja počet razmišljat na transfer amd-intel,pošto ovu moju konfu vrijeme gazi

E odlicno, zahvaljujem na ovom!

Ma kaj brijes, konfa ti je jos uvijek dobra. Malo naclockaj tog X2 (ako vec nisi). Neku bolju grafulju gore upiknes (ako se igras, a koliko znam da), tipa 8x00GTx i to je to

[zvonac]

hehe,ma znam,al ak se taj trend nastavi expanzija intela,odo i ja na njega..kroz koje 2-3god...al opet nikad se nezna..ma clockanje me više ne zanima,popustilo me to...

Core 2 Quad Q6600
Intel recently unveiled its updated pricelist for Q3’s processor products. Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 has already experienced a large cut from $851 per 1,000 units shipped to $530 on April 22. The company decided to make another cut to Core 2 Quad Q6600, where its price would be as low as $266 per 1,000 units shipped. Meaning this new processor would experience a 68.7% accumulative cut of price since its release in March. Another point that should deserve our attention is that Intel would no longer release any Dual-Core Intel Core 2 Extreme edition. Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6800 processor released in Q3 will be the last Dual Core of this series.





Detalji i nagađanja oko 45nm procesora
We won't see the things on the desktop until the beginning of 2008. Given Intel's 45nm fab plant schedule, the 45nm rollout will probably be slow like Conroe's. The cheapest price on the 45nm dual cores will be at the $183 price level, again, much like Conroe. 45nm will be the time when quadcores start becoming mainstream, and the cheapest 45nm quadcore will initially cost somewhere around $266. We don't expect Penryn to be dramatically better than Conroe, maybe 10-20% better mostly due to increased clock speeds.

nema više X6800

ali zato Q6600 po 2500kn bi bio magičan

Ma nemože biti toliko, ja predviđam 2000 kn Mislim da je najbolje vrijeme za mjenjanje platforme polovica-kraj 2008.
