AMD Athlon 64 X4 | April 2007 | Barcelona | 65nm | 2.5GHz | 2 | 1MB | 1.4GHz

x4 but 2 cores?

[Digitalx]

Apparently so seems strange but it could mean like the 4x4 with 2 of these cpu = 4.

[halcyoncmdr]

Umm... the Barcelona chips are a native quad-core design... :blink:

Barcelona is AMD's first quad-core processor, featuring four cores on a single 65nm die. Unlike Intel's quad-core Kentsfield, Barcelona is not made up of two dual core die, which is why AMD calls it a "native" quad core solution.

[Digitalx]

ok, i'll edit it.

[SacrificialSoldier]

Nice List! Thanks!

[Digitalx]

updated according to news.

[PyX]

Intel Core 2 Quad | October 2007 | Core 2 Quad [yorkfield] | 45nm | 3.46-3.73GHz | 4 | 12MB | 1,333MHz ???

Okay... let's see. My computer is still brand new, and I will skip this next generation... meaning that.. I will get something MUCH better than this? hey.. it's awesome! Though I'm pretty sure they will continue to add notebook CPUs into iMacs, so I'm not really sure I'll get something THAT better. I know Santa Rosa is supposed to be next, but the cache and bus they wanna add to these Intel Core 2 Quad is just incredible.

I can't believe that AMD cannot keep up with Intel with their 45nm transistors... if AMD goes away, there won't be any competition... at all. This is bad for AMD and for us! Oh well, at least I encouraged AMD for the 3 processors before my Core 2 Duo, I shouldn't feel this bad.

(off-topic : digix, a mac CAN right click since the very beginning... you're misinformed)

[WelshBluebird]

Any ideas if Intel (or AMD actually) plans to put quad cores in laptops anytime this year? (should be possible by the end of the year, especially with Intel already releasing lower power Xeon Quads.)

[georgevella]

Anyone knows if the 680i chipset is compatible with the 1333Mhz FSB processors?

[Digitalx]

(off-topic : digix, a mac CAN right click since the very beginning... you're misinformed)

Indeed, that's why it's a joke because for long time i dunno if still applies now i'm not a heavy mac user most mac mouses had the single large button on it.

[Imnotrichey]

I think a nice idea would be to put an estimated price at the end as well (if you know it)

and also maybe putting them in order by the date they are coming out

quick question though...are those new core 2duos probably gonna blow barcelona away?

[J400uk]

I am sure intel are releasing some single core versions of the new Pentium processors that will be sold under Celeron 4xx branding. Also the E4xx C2Ds are Allendale NOT Conroe.

[Digitalx]

prices will be the same field pretty much around what they are with what they are now plus i'm not american or know how processor sales market justify prices so if someone wants to write up an appropriate list of predicted prices i'll be more then happy to add them.

[Nicholas-c Veteran]

what about prices? wouldn't mind knowing general estimates

[neowin_34242]

Anyone knows if the 680i chipset is compatible with the 1333Mhz FSB processors?

Yes it does but might need BIOS update. All you need is correct RAM speed circuitry (RAM/FSB divide ratio) to support 1333MHz. 965 could support if it has correct RAM/FSB divide ratio as well (that's why you can see all these reports of 965 going over 1500MHz FSB but could not support E6x50 series), and actually some 965 with newer circuits to support the required ratio do support 1333 MHz FSB.

[m1x4h]

yay

[Imnotrichey]

well i think we just add what we know so far in terms of prices. Like what was released on the front page yesterday. Which is:

$266 for E6850

183 for E6750

163 for E6550

I cant believe the 6850 will be 50 bucks cheaper than what the 6600 is now. That just seems too low.

[Evolution]

October 2007 seems like the month to get a new computer :D

Intel Core 2 Quad | October 2007 | Core 2 Quad [yorkfield] | 45nm | 3.46-3.73GHz | 4 | 12MB | 1,333MHz

I'm guessing that it's 3 MB of L2 Cache per core?

I wonder what the pricing is going to be like however... How much heat energy do the 45nm cores expend compared to the older ones?

[WelshBluebird]

not really, considering Q3 is when intel should be moving to 45nm (so the 65nm chips would drop in price anyway), but also because Q3 is when AMD are supposed to be releasing their new CPU's. Prehaps Intel knows something we do not?

[Jason S. Global Moderator]

last i read, the penryn (45nm) models were delayed until Q1 2008. is this more recent news? did they bump it back up to Q4 2007?

[Imnotrichey]

i thought it was still Q1 2008...the ones coming out in 2007 were the Xeon's i thought

[Digitalx]

long time update of CPU's including new Quads from intel and the new AM2+ prediction line. if i've missed anything feel free to let me know or if i have something incorrect.

That's pretty cheap for a processor like that. :blink:

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 | January 2007 | Core 2 Quad [Kentsfield] | 65nm | 2.4GHz | 4 | 8MB | 1,333MHz[**]

Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6800 | April 2007 | Core 2 Extreme [Kentsfield] | 65nm | 2.93GHz | 4 | 8MB | 1,333MHz[**]

The above are wrong. Change those to

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 | January 2007 | Core 2 Quad [Kentsfield] | 65nm | 2.4GHz | 4 | 8MB | 1,066MHz

Intel Core 2 Quad | October 2007 | Core 2 Quad Penryn | 45nm | 3.46-3.73GHz | 4 | 12MB | 1,600MHz

Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6800 | April 2007 | Core 2 Extreme [Kentsfield] | 65nm | 2.93GHz | 4 | 8MB | 1,066MHz
