And what is the code name?

I want a new MBP.... lol

Anyone have any good info about it? Launch speeds? Cache sizes? Etc
 
Um, mobiles need to run on batteries, so of course it's not the same 100W+ beast. It uses the same Nehalem core and has the same features as the desktop version with a couple of exceptions (dual channel vs tri channel MC). And it's not like it won't be the fastest mobile processor on release for the class that it targets. :p
 
Waiting for these for my next laptop, can't wait. My old A64 3400+ and its Radeon 9700 pro need to be put to pasture.

However I thought the mobile version was going to be a dual core chip with HT? That wikipedia article shows it's a quad with HT. Hmmmm. I would be fine or even prefer a dual core Nehalem based chip for a lappy, just from need vs power usage. I just need a lappy to surf the net and then act as a mobile game machine when I visit friends out of state.
 
Also waiting for mobile nehalem for my next laptop.
clarkfield is the quad version, at 35W IIRC.
arrandale is the dual version, at 10-xW.
both are based on s1156, rather than s1366.
 
its actually mPGA-989, but its BASED on the s1156 socket, meaning the board layout is P55 rather than X58.
