The Nehalem launched as soon as September? Posted on 24/07/2008 at 20:13 by Nicolas
According to information obtained from Digitimes from motherboard manufacturers, the launch of the Nehalem Bloomfield has been "advanced" to September while it was recently a question of November/December on certain roadmaps. However, officially these processors and X58 motherboards that accompany them will not be available before early October. In actuality, this doesn’t mean much because some partners are sometimes very ahead of the game when everything goes well.
This was recently the case with the launch of the Radeon HD 4850. Moreover, some manufacturers that work with Intel do the same as was notably the case with P35 motherboards that arrived a month too early. Some may point out that it’s only logical that availability will start in certain large Asian cities at the end of September as earlier this year there was a similar phenomenon on the market with the arrival of low volumes of other processors...
