Clarksfield quad-core

Intel is planning a quad-core for notebooks based on its Nehalem mainstream refresh. The desktop mainstream Nehalem is known as Lynnfield, and the mobile version of the same chip is Clarksfield. This will be the first mobile Nehalem to hit the notebook market.

It will use a mobile version of 5 series M chipset and in might come out by the middle of the year. Clarksdale has four cores and eight threads and it will come with dual-channel memory support. It fits the Capella platform.

The second chip to fit this platform comes in early 2010, but it might start to produce in Q4 2009 and it is called Arrandale. This chip has a 32nm dual-core with four threads CPU and 45nm based integrated graphica core in multi chip package style. This can be seen as mobile version of the Clarkdale 32nm desktop CPU.

Lets hope it is out by summer. I need a laptop for college and depending no the price, I may think about it.
It'll be fast, but I can't imagine it will be cheap. And you'll need DDR3 SO-DIMMs to go with it.

You can say that again....

DDR3 sodimms won't cost nearly as much by the time this is out
Do these have on-die north bridges like AMD's Turion Ultra X2?

Wow? Really? They have enough space @ 65 nm?

It has 2 K8 cores and an on-die north bridge. And can turn off each core individually if need be. The K8 cores are probably skimmed down and the NB probably isn't too big to begin with.

Same concept is applied in the graphics on the same (Puma) platform. 2 GPU. One dedicated, full fledged GPU. And one integrated, small, one. Turns off the big one under battery power.
