Official Desktop Penryn Discussion Thread

[adamsleath]

I expect 3.6GHz 45nm quadcore at around 100W TDP.

that would be amazing...but i think it might be a bit optimistic.
even though i can see how you arrived at those numbers sort of; who knows you may be right....assuming 90W tdp at 3.33 for yf.

does anyone know what speed wolfdale or yorkfield are supposed to clock at stock? what their codings are etc? have intel actually started to churn these chips out yet? i get the feeling that intel are not sorting /binning penryn cpu's as we speak or are they?

and just how much different architecturally are they from c2d's?

and sorry if this has already been discussed.


looking at that Gelsinger link:

intel forecasts (or is targeting) 45nm shipments to equal 65nm shipments by Q3 '08.

Actual Quad at 3.33ghz are 150W tdp with 30% less power in 45nm you can run a kentfield at 105watt for 3.33ghz.

where does this come from?

if this is correct 3.6 should be a walk in the park for a yorkfield.
