by accident on the same day as shanghai launch :cool: no news on TDP range yet
Xeon 5500 model Cores Price in dollars (1000)
W5580 3,2Ghz 4 1600,-
X5570 2,93GHz 4 1386,-
X5560 2,8GHz 4 1172,-
X5550 2,66GHz 4 958,-
E5540 2,53GHz 4 744,-
E5530 2,4GHz 4 530,-

E5506 2,13GHz 4 266,-
E5504 2GHz 4 224,-
E5502 onbekend 2 188,-
Xeon 3500 Cores price dollars (1000)
W3570 4 999,-
W3540 4 562 ,-
W3520 4 284,-
W= 130W, X=120W, E=80W, L=50W
Asfar as I recall.
lets complain about power consumption, shall we?Quote:

prices looks decent btw, i thought intel would ask more money for nehalems
Remember the difference on TDP and actual consumption. Plus the turbo mode. 3.2Ghz=3.46ghz etc.Quote:

The L5430 would be the fastest CPU if I had anything to say ;)
So the turbo will be a server feature too?Hmm that's interesting.
dont look decent to me lol..
itll be a year before i go to nehalem. :(
The 3500 series is like the current i7 in speeds btw.
do the servers use Turbo mode too? If not, I wonder why the TDP is as high as it is for some of those.
Any word how nehalem does in virtualization? Looks like this is where it will be playing catch up with shanghai the most.
I asked the same question but intel pr didn't bother to answer it :).
I was half expecting Intel to leak a few results today to do a bit of thunder stealing.

LOL man i actually spoke of a real pr,as in "i emailed them",not you...
Funny you recognized yourself in my post,so you are really an intel PR for Denmark then?? omg... :confused:
looks ok for the W5580 (comparable w/ current prices) I'm way more interested in the MB layout and if they're going to use the dual tylersburg-36d chips for more pcie channels. I've been praying for a decent board with 16x,8x,8x,16x,8x,8x for a while now!
duploxxx,any news of motherboard availability for 2P and prices?
Maybe it is nice to credit the original source of this information, but I'll save you the hassle:
This is where you got it from, as can be seen by the word "onbekend":
http://tweakers.net/nieuws/56756/mee...erschenen.html
And they got it from Digitimes:
http://www.digitimes.com/news/a20081112PD218.html
Well as said the prices are not bad. The speeds are though. When are we ever gonna see a 4Ghz chip??? It's not like it is impossible, people on this site prove that every day.
4Ghz combined with reliability, working in all situations, amount of errors, degration, yields etc. Nopes...Quote:

You cant compare user "validation" with real validation for servers, your oced 4ghz would fail server validation for sure.Quote:

Since the npt and rvi are already in there second life now with amd, while intel needs to get it out for the first time with nehalem. But nehalem has the added value of more memory channels but slower l3 cache according to anandtech.
4p intel nehalem is a different thing, it will be a huge leap forward for intel comparing against there own product.
W3520 for me, 'i7 920' is such a silly name.
Yes, really, I'm waiting for it because of the name. I get to nitpick when the CPU costs €250< :p:
Any word on the motherboard options? looking at the current price of the sp boards it might be worth building a dp system if they offer some mild oc options. Any clues about chipset and ram used?
