Intel Bloomfield To Hit > 4GHz and Has 8MB Cache

Based on the 45nm Nehalem architecture, Intel aims to bring Bloomfield clock speed above 4GHz in 2008. Bloomfield will contain 8MB of shared L2 cache which is smaller overall in comparison to Yorkfield 2x6MB L2 cache. It is still within the 130W thermal envelope.

130W is Prescott territory!

but 130W for 4 cores at 4 Ghz is awesome

I'd rather have applications/games which can make use of that extra CPU power
