Intel's Core i5 750 and i7 975 EOL Early Next Year

Intel has announced something it calls Product Support Notice or its way of saying that days for Core i5 750 are numbered. It is a clear signal to its distributors to get rid of Core i5 750 as Intel plans to discontinue them.

This year and a quarter old CPU with its 2.66GHz core clock and ability to rock all the way to 3.2GHz with Turbo will retire and make some space for Sandy Bridge for digit Core i5 2xxx parts. The other CPU that Intel really want to berry in Q1 2011 is Core i7 975. This is a good old Bloomfield CPU with four cores, Extreme Edition sticker but as it's a 45nm part with a 130W TDP, it has nothing to do in 2011.
