Sandy-Bridge E is almost here - listed for 990 Euros

Most of the major hardwaresites have their testsetups and test the upcoming enthusiastic socket 2011 platform. Thanks to geizhals.at(skinflint.co.uk) I found the first listed Processors: The Core i7 3930K (6*3,2Ghz) and the Core i7 3960X (6*3,3Ghz).



Looking at the Core i7 Xtreme it has the following specs: Six-Core "Sandy Bridge-EP" • TDP: 130W • Manufacturingprocess: 32nm • DMI: N/A • L2-Cache: 6x 256kB • L3-Cache: 15MB shared • Stepping: C1 • IGP: N/A • Memory Controller: Quad Channel PC3-10667U (DDR3-1333) • SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AVX, Turbo Boost (3.90GHz), Hyper-Threading, VT-x, AES-NI, Intel 64, Idle States, EIST, Thermal Monitoring Technologies, Intel Fast Memory Access, Intel Flex Memory Access, XD bit, free multiplier

The Core i7 K has the following specs: Six-Core "Sandy Bridge-EP" • TDP: 130W • Manufacturingprocess: 32nm • DMI: N/A • L2-Cache: 6x 256kB • L3-Cache: 12MB shared • Stepping: C1 • IGP: N/A • Memory Controller: Quad Channel PC3-10667U (DDR3-1333) • SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AVX, Turbo Boost (3.80GHz), Hyper-Threading, VT-x, AES-NI, Intel 64, Idle States, EIST, Thermal Monitoring Technologies, Intel Fast Memory Access, Intel Flex Memory Access, XD bit, free multiplier


The Extreme Version is listed for 990€ and the K unlocked Version starts at 555€. Both of them are not available though. And on the other hand Sandybridge tests havent been out yet either. Official test will be available within a week or two, we dont have one sadly.
