They've surely got to be fairly expensive considering the tech/die size, I'd guess ~$500 launch price for the 2.66Ghz model..?
The performance in that preview is even more impressive when you consider it was running on a hobbled motherboard also, the reviewers seemed pretty excited... |

Intel Nehalem to allow overclocking, some processors will even encourage it :-
| Quote: |
Taipei (Taiwan) - Hot on the heels of AMD's overclocking secret, we can reveal that Bloomfield and Lynnfield, key processors of Intel’s upcoming Nehalem family, will indeed feature overclocking capabilities for up to eight CPU cores (16 threads).
Credible information we were able to obtain from industry sources suggest that rumors about Intel preventing users from overclocking Nehalem processors are false. From what we have learned, Intel has very healthy silicon on its hands. It appears that there are some challenges related to overclocking, especially in the memory controller area. However, it is unlikely that there will be anything that prevents overclocking of the CPU cores. |
