Intel Nehalem will be unveiled at an event in San Francisco on November 17th and it will become “the fastest processor on the planet.” The Core i7 was announced a while ago and we can’t wait to get our hands on this architecture, however, the pricing might be a problem.
The Core i7 will be manufactured in three different quad-core models : 2.66 GHz Core i7 920 available for the under $1000 PC class, the 2.93 GHz Core i7 940 which will be available for $1500-$2000 PC class and the 3.2 GHz 965 Extreme Edition for the fastidious PCs which most of us will never afford.
The 920 costs 284$, the 940 will be $562 and for the Extreme Edition you will have to pay $999. Anyhow you should expect the retail prices to be 10-15 percent higher.
