According to the damen und herren at Au-Ja!, news has lazily filtered to the surface that motherboard vendors are currently testing 45nm samples for release products in 4Q07. Now, the goods:
* Wolfdale (Dual-Core) 2.33 GHz, 6 MByte L2-Cache, FSB1333, Multiplier=7
* Wolfdale (Dual-Core) 2.66 GHz, 6 MByte L2-Cache, FSB1333, Multiplier=8
* Yorkfield (Quad-Core) 2.33 GHz, 6 MByte L2-Cache, FSB1333, Multiplier=7
Additionally, it is reported that the EE-series is going to gain a 10*333 Yorkfield brother before year end. A 1GHz clock spread between the vanilla and EE-series chips is the first time Intel has ever truly distinguished the Extreme Edition line so strongly.
For those of you who are curious, Yorkfield is simply two Wolfdales in a package. Let the “Inelegant! INELEGANT!” FUD continue.
