First introduced at the CES, Intel's new Sandy Bridge CPU architecture is here to flood the mainstream market with over 25 CPUs. Don't panic, most are foreseen for the mobile market and only 9 new models will be introduced for the desktop segment. Coinciding with this new release is also a new socket design. 1155 pins will be the new standard for Intel's mainstream lineup. Yes you guessed it, Sandy bridge is here to replace socket 1156.
