According to our sources, if Penryn dual core, or Wolfdale, will be well-launched in mid-January, quad core versions, Yorkfield, will not be available until late February / early March.
Derrière ce décalage se cache un bug qui dans de très rares cas entrainerait un plantage du système (décidemment ...), bug qu'Intel a décidé de corriger avant le lancement des CPU bien qu'il n'ai été détecté qu'en laboratoire lors d'une nouvelle procédure de validation.
Behind this shift lies a bug that in very rare cases entrainerait a system crash (decidedly ...), bug that Intel has decided to fix before launching the CPU while it was detected in laboratory during a new procedure for validation.
Strangely, the QX9650 which is probably also affected is still for sale, while the same versions of Xeon processors launched there is little would not be affected.
Quoi qu'il en soit, ceux qui attendaient le Q9300, le Q9450 ou encore le Q9550 pour monter ou upgrader leur configuration devront donc prendre leur mal en patience ...
Anyway, those who were waiting for the Q9300, Q9450 and the Q9550 to mount or upgrade their configuration should therefore take their evil in patience ...
