Based on press reports from Computex 007, it seems pretty clear that the 45 nanometer Penryns both in workstation and server configurations are pretty much good to go.
The 3.33GHz/FSB 1333 desktop and 3.2GHz/FSB1600 servers were out and about in good numbers and Intel was confident enough to let any and all play with the machines as desired.
The bottom line is that Penryn looks like it is good to go, the question is how many, how fast, and when?
Does anybody know how many chips the lead 45 nano fab in Oregon can actually produce, as in wafers per week, or chiips per day, or whatever?
It will be interesting if Intel pushes this one out the door early just for the PR value, or if theywait for another one or two speed grades above the current 3.33 ghz machines they have bee showing.
Anybody have any interesting tea leaves they care to read?
