Core i7-965 extreme edition (3.2 GHz) processor differ from its cheaper analogs not only in terms of the increased of data transmission speed ( QPI ) or in terms of free multiplier, but also in terms faster memory support : DDR3-1333 against DDR3-1066. Today the official documentation of core i7 processors appeared on Intel site. Intel in this case reported the detailed fundamental technical characteristics and marking of core i7 : Extreme processors model are formally capable of working with DDR3-1333 memory regime, but officially they support only DDR3-1066 regime.

POSTER: computer news   ||   AMD TALK ABOUT THE HIGH PRICE OF CORE I7 PROCESSOR	DATE:2008-11-17
core i7 processors and the associated motherboards LGA 1366 today began to enter on sale, and it is already possible to judge the retail prices of. Thus, motherboards on the base of intel x58 chipset are released in price range from $300 to $400. The wholesale prices of bloomfield processors are : $999 for Core i7-965 extreme edition (3.2 GHz), $562 for Core i7-940 (2.93 GHz) and $294 for Core i7-920 (2.66 GHz). To the noted above we can add the expensive three channel memory and new cooler for LGA 1366 .According to(Bob grim), elder manager ( AMD marketing subdivision ), which is occupied by desktop solutions: " Expensive motherboards pays, expensive memory… All signs indicate that the processors will be expensive". In this context according to AMD representatives core i7 processors are incorrectly positioned. Let us recall that 45 nm processors AMD desktop class will be compatible with the existing motherboards with socket AM2+ and socket AM3. In principle, Intel does not hide, that core i7 processors LGA 1366 are intended for the upper price range. For this reason intel company is intended to prolong the life cycle LGA 775 platform until 2011. If we considers that in some tasks core i7 processors are not faster than their predecessors, then demand for LGA 1366 platform will be made only by advanced users, that realize all advantages and deficiencies in nehalem architecture. In the third quarter 2009 , with lynnfield processors ( dual-channel memory controller) situation can change and components for LGA 1156 platform will be more accessible.
