Core i5 CPU specs, prices reported

[RogerFielden]

Delayed until October or not, the Lynnfield (Core i5) are closing in which means more details about them are also popping up. Manufactured using the mature 45nm process, Intel's first Socket 1156 processors are said to be the 2.66, 2.8 and 2.93 GHz-clocked Core i5 models. These processors will all feature four cores and an integrated dual-channel DDR3 memory controller (providing DDR3-1066/1333 support), 8MB of L3 cache and a TDP of 95W.

According to reports, the upcoming 2.66, 2.8 and 2.93 GHz chips will have support for the Turbo Boost technology which will enable single-core overclocks of up to 3.2, 3.46 and 3.6 GHz respectively. In terms of prices, the CPUs would go for $196, $284 and $562, with the cheapest part, the 2.66 MHz model, set to not include features like Hyper Threading, vPro and TXT, which will be found on the 2.8 and 2.93 GHz Lynnfields. Shortly after releasing these three processors, Intel is expected to deliver its first 32nm CPUs.

I was thinking if core i4 have an unlimited specifications then core i5 CPU's should have more than that, this what has actually happened, like it has four cores and an integrated dual-channel DDR3 memory controller 8MB of L3 cache and a TDP of 95W.

Not only this it has the single-core overclocks capacity from 3.2, 3.46 and 3.6 GHz respectively which is glory on top of everything else.
