The new label "Core 2 Duo" is for the Conroe. The first to launch will be the Core 2 Extreme, while the normal Core 2 Duo will follow shortly after that. The new CPU will ship in July.

That sounds so stupid. Core 2 EXTREME!!! Make it pentium 5, it will attract more customers.

Sounds good to me

Personally, I like it. Maybe I'm a little biased as far as names go, though. :laugh:

"Core 2 Extreme will actually become the first Conroe processor to launch, followed immediately by Core 2 Duo E6700"

It was the E6700 that took on the FX-60 (oc-ed to 2.8).

Shipping date is July while on June 6th Intel will publicly demonstrate Core 2 Duo at Computex 2006 in Taipei, Taiwan.

what socket will it use? LGA's again? imo, they are rather dumb.. i'd rather replace pins and all instead of a cpu and have the pins sit in the mobo.
