Sandy Bridge-E May Launch in October 2011, Core i7-3930K Gets Priced

The first Sandy Bridge-E desktop processors create more and more discussion on the web, as it looks now they'll be released  as soon as October of this year already.

Intel's apparantly now plans the chips to be launched in weeks 40 to 49 of 2011, which span from the beginning of October all the way to December.

A publication also uncovered the price of the upcoming Sandy Bridge-E based Core i7-3930K, which is expected to retail for $560. This makes it about $23 cheaper than the six-core Core i7-980/970.

While no information regarding the pricing of the high-end Core i7-3960X Extreme Edition was provided, this is expected to hover around the $999 mark. Intel's initial Sandy Bridge-E desktop launch will also include a third chip that is known as the Core i7-3820.

This is the slowest of the three CPUs to be launched as it includes only four processing cores with a base clock speed of 3.60 GHz and a maximum Turbo speed of 3.90 GHz. These are accompanied by 10MB of Level 3 cache memory.

For the Core i7-3960X and Core i7-3930K, Intel has increased the core count to six as well as the amount of L3 cache integrated to 12MB and 15MB, respectively. However, the base operating frequencies are lower than that of the quad-core processor, as the Core i7-3960X is clocked at 3.30GHz with a maximum Turbo of 3.90GHz, while the Core i7-3930K works at 3.2GHz and has a maximum Turbo of 3.80GHz.

All the processors sport a quad-channel DDR3 memory controller that can officially support memory speeds up to 1333MHz.
