As according to the Eclipse Developer Journal, Intel now planning the launch of its six-core microprocessor, which will be named as the Dunnington microprocessor. On the contrary, Dunnington will be succeeded by Nehalem micro architecture, which will support eight or even more cores. While Dunnington, is still supposed to be a hush-hush but Intel has reportedly put three dual core 45nm Penryn chips on a die the size of a postage stamp and a shared 16MB L3 cache. Dunnington still uses a front-side bus.
Dunnington will be available in a variety of SKUs and with different clock rates with power dissipation that ranges beyond 120W.
Intel is reportedly seeking how quickly they can launch Dunnington to the market before the first Nehalem chips and could appear in Q3 or in Q2.
Meanwhile, Intel introduced Skulltrail, its eight core Dual Socket Extreme Desktop Platform for the gaming market, which is able to support two Intel quads and Multi-card graphics from ATI or Nvidia in D5400XS board, which costs $649.
