When can we expect the new 32nm processors?

I`m sure i heard on the internet but don`t hold me on that, we won`t see the high end Westmere 32 nm processors parts until 2010. We will see lower 32 nm processors based on Westmere this year, but won`t be the real high end processors.

So? It's still being release no matter what form.
 
As far as i know there will be no Quad core based on Westmere.

Dual cores and Hexacore. Not sure whether the Hex will be native, most probably will be a 3 x Duals in a single package
 
Intel "Clarkdale" Die Spotted

A person over in the XtremeSystems forums has gotten his hands on Intel's upcoming "Clarkdale" processor. For those of you not-in-the-know, "Clarkdale" will be Intel's first desktop CPU+GPU chip. It will contain a 32-nm "Westmere" dual-core processor with 2 x 256KB L2 cache, 4MB of shared L3 cache, along with other still unknown "Westmere" enhancements. The GPU will be on a seperate 45-nm chip (but in the same package) that will also have the dual-channel DDR3-1333 memory controller and a PCI Express 2.0 hub with 16 lanes. "Clarkdale" will use the same Socket 1156 as the upcoming quad-core "Lynnfield" processor, and it is currently scheduled to come out in Q4 2009.

I do hope they use 1366 socket for 32nm chips so people with i7 can just drop a new chip in, that would make me happy. But as said above it will probably be a whole new socket.
 
Yeah think I'll stick with my Q9550 til 32nm processors are released or 6 cores. Otherwise not much point..
