Default [exp] Nehalem to become Core i7 processor

Quote:

Intel have decided to brand Nehalem with a new name “Core i7″. That means no matter Bloomfield, Lynnfield, or Havendale will officially get their name.

There will be 3 Bloomfield to enter PC market later this year, and the 999USD top-of-the-line Bloomfield is the only Core i7 Extreme Edition processor current revealed.

All i7 processors and i7 Extreme Edition processor will be officially announced in Aug 11st, launch date set to Q4 this year.

That's a weird name. Oh well. Also looks like the white is gone from the logo, it's all black in two different tones or all blue in two different tones.

If they were LGA775, they wouldn't be an improvement.

Exactly. The cores are basically still Penryn cores, a few neat improvements but nothing with a big impact. The large changes here come from the platform - integrated memory controller, QPI link replacing age-old FSB.

Here comes the "seven" bandwagon. First Microsoft Windows 7, now this. Just like the days where everything was deemed XP.

I'd imagine they would call something like Core3. I wonder why i7, but those logos look stylish.

The logos look pretty slick. Though when I seen the headline "i7" I thought they were new processors for Apple or something. Kinda hate the "i" trend.

They've been calling it 'next generation' so many times that they probably want to differentiate it more from Core 2 than simply calling it 'Core 3'. It'll be interesting to hear their rationale for the name on Monday or at IDF.
