Ouch £230+ for the entry level bloomfield I've only recently upgraded so I might hold up for 32nm. Not looking to pay more than £137 which I paid for the 8400.
I don't like this idea of 3 different sockets.
45nm Core 2 Quad Q8200 replaces the Q6600 quad. Who knows what the spec will be or price.
1567 = server.
1366 = us, meaning gamers & enthusiasts and others.
1160 = value desktop, like the £300 PCs you buy from the purple shirt place.
Theres also 771. That might be the value desktop. 1160 for us average joes maybe and 1366 for >£230 CPUs.
So we could have 771 (celeron), 1160 (e.g. dual core mainstream), 1366 (quad core - high end).
Thats a lot of sockets. It's not as simple as simply buying any 775 motherboard. I think a lot of people would agree! I only upgrade every 2 years or so changing motherboards ain't my thing.
As said in the post above mine, LGA 771 is the current Xeon socket.
The way it's panning out to be is:
1567 - Boomfield (quad) and "Nehalem-EX"(Oct)
1366 - Bloomfield (quad)
1160 - Lynnfield (quad) and Havendale (dual).
No matter what you choose, you still get a reasonable upgrade path.
Socket H (LGA 715) - a future replacement for the current Socket T (LGA 775), without integrated memory controller and newer point-to-point processor interconnect
can i expect to get a performance bloomfield this year then? if extreme editions come in oct when can i get a performance one for no more than £200-300?
hope these things can clock to 3.5 easily and more
well if its possible to get hold of one this year i would probably get one
guess i need to wait for more info
Thank you for letting us know. I don't have problems its just that when was the last time you saw a cpu maxed out on all 4 cores otther than on some kind of encoding?
Sup Com seems to sometimes.
