3.2GHz "Conroe" gets confirmed by Intel
Intel representatives just contacted DailyTech with the following information:
The Core 2 Extreme processor (Conroe based) will ship at
2.93GHz at Core 2 Duo launch. We will also have a 3.2GHz version by
end of the year. And as you know, the Quad Core enthusiast
SKU, Kentsfield, is planned for Q1'07.
Several days ago, we published details of Intel's Core 2 Duo roadmap, although the roadmap did not have information about a 3.2GHz Conroe. Intel's Extreme Edition processors typically launch at a $1,000 USD price point, and then are quickly phased out in time for the next generation.
The 2.93GHz Conroe processor will ship as the Core 2 Duo X6800 processor. Previous Intel roadmaps have also confirmed that the launch date for Conroe, the desktop Core 2 Duo processor, is slated for July 23, 2006.
"Intel is investing heavily (think gazillions of dollars and bazillions of engineering man hours) in resources to create an Intel host controllers spec in order to speed time to market of the USB 3.0 technology." -- Intel blogger Nick Knupffer
