That article is pretty wrong in alot of places. Best ignored.
Yorkfield is 214mm2 and 820million. Nehalem is less than 200mm2.The quad-core, "extreme" performance CPU codenamed Bloomfield, will be identical to the DP parts above, but will be single socket only and have a single QPI link. This will also be on socket LGA1366. It is suggested to have a 270mm² die size, about the same as current Kentsfield’s 65nm 286mm² die, but it’ll have nearly 150m more transistors at 731m
