Intel’s Upcoming Processors Get Leaked Intel Roadmap Reveals Desktop Core i3, i5 i7 Processors

It looks like Intel has serious desktop plans when it comes to
processors. The company has leaked a roadmap in which it details some of
the processors coming out early next year. Should we be excited?Well to
tell you the truth I ve given up using desktops a while ago. I am a
laptop man but that that doesn t mean I am not interested in the new
Intel Core processors. But as much as I like to write about those iMa
cs coming with Core i5/i7 inside, I still wouldn t buy an all-in-one
yet, or a desktop for that matter.
There are plenty of desktop users out there and when it comes to playing
games or watching movies, a desktop would probably serve a lot better
than a laptop. That s why we definitely need more Intel Core processors
in our lives.
Intel s future processors include the low-powered S versions of the Core
i5-750 and i7-860. Both processors will use only 82W of power and they
will apparently fit into even tighter spaces. Both the i5 and the i7
version will come with 8MB Level 2 cache and they will run four cores at
2.4GHz and 2.53GHz respectively topping at 3.2GHz and 3.46GHz.
The dual-core Core i5 are said to be faster as they will offer a minimum
3.46GHz clock speed and they will go all the way up to 3.73GHz. The Core
i5-650 starts at 3.2GHz and can go to 3.46GHz while the Core i5-660 will
start from 3.33GHz and reach 3.6GHz. These processors will only use 73W
of power and they will offer you 4MB of L2 cache.
The Core i3 processor doesn t have the Turbo Boost feature which means
no overclocking for you if you decide to get it. Two models will be
available, the i3-530 and the i3-540 which will clock at 2.93GHz and
3.06GHz respectively.
I bet you want to hear more about the Core i9 architecture but that s
not going to be available until spring next year. We re also interested
to see Intel s Core intentions for laptops and we ll be back with all
the juicy stuff once we have it.Read | Or scroll down for further on
