As we already reported accessible processors LGA 1160 will appear only in the second-half of 2009. Concerning bloomfield processors LGA 1366, whose announcement is planed at the end of the present year, will cost not less than $300. Moreover a new expensive motherboard is required (chipset intel x58). AND DDR3 memory has to be sold in three-channel complete sets. We considered that the young model bloomfield with 2.66 GHZ frequency will cost $316 (from 1000 pieces). However, associate reported that intel company corrected the prices of bloomfield processors :
- Bloomfield 3.2 GHz (Extreme edition) - > $999;
- Bloomfield 2.93 GHz - > $562;
- Bloomfield 2.66 GHz - > $284.
The first processor will be characterized not only the presence of free multiplier, but also support high-speed memory DDR3-1333, whereas two others will be limited to DDR3-1066 regime . Furthermore, elder model bloomfield will support QPI witch will transmit data with 6,4 GT/s speed , this speed will be lowered to 4,8 GT/s for the two young models . All three models will have a TDP not more than 130 W. The cache volume in the third level is equal to 8mb. for all three processors . The second important news : in the third quarter of the following year the dual core processors havendale LGA 1160 will be proposed for $80-90. Motherboards producers consider that this price policy with LGA 1160 platform will rapidly remove the LGA 775p platform from the market . Related Products :
