INTEL PROCESSOR ROADMAP socket 1155, 1366, LGA2011

New information on future Intel CPUs for desktops, thanks to an updated intel processor roadmap to 11-th week of the year contains a number of new details on the solutions socket 1155, socket 1366 and those sockets LGA2011.

For the fourth quarter of 2011 is expected to debut the first family of solutions E-Sandy Bridge, solutions that will take the place of the CPU socket LGA 1366 which have long been present in Intel processor roadmap lists. If in the end we will see extreme solutions Sandy Bridge-E completely replace what is available so far, the transition will be in the range Premium gradually.

Intel processor roadmap, what are the benefits, according to Intel, future solutions Sandy Bridge-E? First, the possibility of having a 6-core versions, capable of handling up to 12 threads in parallel via Hyper Threading technology, plus the ability to handle two-channel PCI Express 16x with all the power lines for each active. The storage subsystem will ensure maximum flexibility in configuration possible between Intel's desktop platforms, but these CPUs will be confirmed as the choice of reference for those who want to experiment with over clocking.

In the first half of 2012 Intel processor roadmap will introduce the solutions Ivy Bridge, development to 22-nanometer manufacturing technology solutions Sandy Bridge. These new CPUs will be positioned in the premium segment, Core i7 CPU series 2000, as well as in the mainstream, taking the place of the Core architecture-based i5 Sandy Bridge.

For the second quarter 2011 the expected debut of the Core i7 980 with 6-core architecture for socket LGA 1366, presumably followed by a version of higher clock frequency during the third quarter. Similarly in the third quarter of 2011 a Core i7 900 Series 990X higher than the model, information that reinforces the rumors about a Core i7-995X model emerged in recent days.
