The mass deliveries of 45 nm four core processors core 2 Quad were detained to the end of March due to the need for passage on C1 stepping .
As reports associate, distributor already began to obtain the processors core 2 Quad q9xxx this week, and in sale they will be available on the following week. Series processors will be based on C1 stepping , we expect additional improvement in frequency potential or decrease in energy consumption level.
Intel already try to improve the deliveries capacities of 45 nm processors. At the given moment intel release approximately 100 thousand 45 nm processors per day. To the end of the first quarter only 1/4 of all produced Intel processors will be made on 45 nm technology. In the third quarter the break in benefit wil occur, and 65 nm technology gradually start to disappears . In the second-half 2009 intel will master 32 nm technical process.
