Desktop processors Clarkdale, which mark the transition of Intel in the 32nm era, will support socket LGA 1156 and is expected to be released in the first quarter of next year. According to the plan of issuing Intel, not published officially, but, nevertheless, appeared on the network, a family of Clarkdale will appear on the market in early 2010. All models of this family (or at least, all models of the first wave) will be dual, with integrated graphics kernel.

So, in the number of processors Intel will Clarkdale single processor Pentium, Core i3 two models and four models of Core i5, with a nominal frequency of 2.8GGts to 3.46GGts. The weakest of the chip family is Pentium G6950 with frequency 2.8GGts, 3Mb cache L3, integrated memory controller DDR3-1066, power 73Vt and without HyperThreading. It is anticipated that the price of this model when buying from the manufacturer of the party from 1000.


For those users who are lacking in productivity, as well as those who can not wait for the emergence of processors for so long, Intel in less than a month plans to introduce new 45nm processors Lynnfield.
