    Hi,

    Does anyone know how many Intel Quad mobile processors will be coming out this year? Is there a link that shows this?

    Also, if possible can someone provide me with a Intel link to the latest processor prices?

    Thanks for in advance for any replies!

    One sweet tidbit about mobile Nehalem. The Tubo Boost feature will not only benefit mobile far more than desktop, but will clock far higher. While nearly all desktops are overclockable and Turbo Boost featured only 1-2 speed grades higher(3.2GHz i7 965 could go to 3.33GHz with 2-4 threads running and 3.46GHz with single thread app), in mobile it'll be much higher.

    Lynnfield and Clarksfield will be able to boost 1x(133MHz) running all 4 cores, 4x(533MHz) running 2 cores, and 7x(933MHz) with 1 core active.

    Nehalem is about bringing the punch in the "extreme" market segments. Core microarchitecture was about bringing leadership in the desktop market. Nehalem already showed that the server market will take nearly 100% advantage of all the new features and is taking the market by storm. In mobile, the power management features/Turbo Boost and the integrated memory controller will bridge the memory gap between desktop and mobile, not to mention the IGP will benefit substantially from it.

    EDITED: Mobile Quad core from Clarkdale to Clarksfield

    Intel mobile quad cores on the Calpella Nehalem platform are called Clarksfield. They arrive in September/October and will be 45nm. They will switch to 32nm early in 2010.
