Despite the launch of the new Sandy Bridge architecture, Intel continues to use the previous Westmere architecture for its CPU-end enthusiast. Yesterday, the giant U.S. chip-maker has officially unveiled the 990X Core i7 Extreme Edition, a new proposal based on top of the line core Gulftown (Westmere architecture with native 6-core).
The only change from the previous top model Core i7 EE 980X is the increase in clock rate, which fell from 3.33MHz to 3.46MHz, because the rest of the specifications is always the same manufacturing process to 32nm, LGA -1366, 130W TDP, multiplied unlocked upwards and 12MB of shared L3 cache, as well as price on the trade: $ 999.
With the debut of the Core i7 Extreme Edition 990X, Intel has also revised the price list of remaining processors LGA-1366. The Model Core i7-970 fell from 880 dollars to 583 dollars and becomes the processor 6-core Intel "more affordable", while the Core i7-960 (4 core) drops to 294 dollars and finally settled on the place of the Core i7-950 .
