New Intel 2011 Desktop Processor Roadmap Leaked ~ Computer Hardware Mall

A new and improved leaked roadmap for what looks like Intel LGA1155 and LGA1366 processors has been leaked out onto the internet that is worth taking a look at. The roadmap has the chip maker's projected timeline of products for all of 2011 and even the first half of 2012! This roadmap is different than the last one and has more details of the processors on it. The upcoming ~$1,000 Intel Extreme Edition 3.3GHz processors are shown as having unlocked BClk multipliers, 15MB of L3 cache and six cores. The step down from here still have six cores and are unlocked, but have lower clock speeds (3.2GHz) and less cache (12MB). Things are starting to look good for the upcoming LGA 2011 processor series and the Intel X79 Express chipset.

In Q4 2011, Intel will unveil its new Sandy Bridge-E (enthusiast) platform, consisting of new multi-core processors in the 2011-pin LGA package, and Intel X79 Express chipset. A roadmap slide leaked to the Chinese media reveals an interesting way in which Intel will approach the platform to monetize it best. To begin with, it appears like Sandy Bridge-E will keep up with the trend set by LGA1155 processors where only certain models can be overclocked, while others are greatly limited. Among those that can be overclocked (or "unlocked", as Intel puts it,) there will be two classes.
