New chips coming from Intel...

[bigwilly]

Looks promising and more affordable than the i7 coming soon. Might wanna hold off on building that new computer.

Looks great, hopefully it's what there saying it is.

Been reading on these, and can wait to see them in action.

I totally love how it's a totally different socket from the i7's, but in theory it makes sense. Terrible for sales and future upgrade ability.

Theyre also planning atleast in the Oregon plant, start to manufacture i7s in a 32 nm process

In addition, i5s aren't as good as the i7s

 

[FreakingHell]

Yeah, not too excited about these.

heard about this a while ago, the i5. It was bound to happen eventually because the current i7 is strictly for the enthusiast, which is a small portion of the market.
