Intel to delay 45nm quads - report

@ 2007/12/19
ACCORDING TO A REPORT, Intel has decided to postpone the launch of its 45nm quad-core CPUs because AMD is in such a mess.

Digitimes said it learned from motherboard makers that the chippery was scheduled to launch in January next year. But now the mobo mob have coughed that the launch will be put back a month or two.

Apparently, Intel will flog its 65nm quad-core processors for a while longer since AMD's triple-core and upcoming Phenom CPUs aren't ready.

The chips we're talking about here are the Core 2 Quad Q9300, Q9450 and Q9550, Digitimes said.
