So has anybody got any more information on them?i know theyre supposed to enter production at the end of this year and will be 45 nm technology,just wondering if anyone has more info on them.

Re: intels new processors,penryn
They will have a new socket (?), and use the new "bearlake" chipset and will be the first processors to support either ddr2 or ddr3. They might be compatible with a few mobo's today, but beyond that I really don't know much.Comment

Re: intels new processors,penryn
The following isnt about Intel but gives you an idea of what intel has to achieve
The new K10 based processors will really make Intel run for its money, at least till the end of the year. Just as Intel stole K8's mojo with Merom aka Core 2 Duo and quad, AMD is ready to finally fight back. It took them almost a year to prepare for the big clash.
Barcelona / Agena FX will beat Intel Core 2 Quad at 3.0 GHz+. Intel knows it and it is scared. Intel also knows that it cannot go over 3.0 GHz with 65 nanometre, at least not at 120 W TDP. Some reports already claim that QX6850 with FSB 1333 and 3 GHZ clock is already pushing the envelope as intel's 120W TDP is actually 150W+ at least on AMD's TDP scale. TDP stands for Thermal Design Power.
Intel needs to go over 3.0 GHZ to 3.2 or more to match Barcelona / Agena parts at 2.5 GHz. Intel knows that it needs to go to 3.2+ GHz and it needs the 45 nm Yorkfield core to match Agena 2.5 GHz.
Finally AMD should be able to make 2.7 if not even more with its 65 nm process. Intel has a good fighting chance with next the generation Nehalem core in the second half of 2008.Comment

**** yes, good to know AMD are getting back up there. The last two years must have really killed their sales...Comment

^ everything you ever wanted to know (or wish someone would tell you) about parts.
informed (maybe) speculation on penryn is all over the place:

Looks tasty. :pComment

Re: intels new processors,penryn
mmmm ddr3,but i still dont understand why intel will probably make it ati cross fire compatible when ati is owned by amd.First preview of the new gigabyte mobo with the p35 "bearlake" chipset:
