Intel Core i7-3970X

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 11/01/2012 08:24 AM | source: | 15 comment(s)
Intel Core i7-3970X

A minor speedbump is expected in the Core i7 series. Intel's new flagship the Core i7-3970X Extreme Edition is already being sold in Singapore for S$1,425 (about US$1,167), including local taxes. This six-core chip will feature a 3.50GHz clockspeed, a 4GHz Turbo, and 15MB L3 cache. The six-core chip is based on the all too familiar 32 nm "Sandy Bridge-E" silicon, and built in the LGA2011 package. Its feature-set is consistent with that of the Core i7-3960X, with 15 MB shared L3 cache, HyperThreading, and unlocked base-clock multiplier.

The Core i7-3970X has HyperThreading support, 256KB L2 cache per core, 15MB shared L3 cache, and a quad-channel DDR3 memory controller with support for up to 128GB of memory.

so a $100 price premium for an additional 200MHz on the core clock, a 100MHz on the turbo boost and support for an additional 64GB of ram.

The e-peen market is big enough for Intel to find worth in producing this chip.

I'd rather wait for the new chips to arrive in March. Are these ones even officially supporting PCI-E 3.0 ?
