TPU reports Intel announced it will retire a bunch of processors from its "Sandy Bridge" lineup. The processors listed below will be available for orders until March 29, 2013, and will continue to ship while supplies last (for boxed versions) or until September 27, 2013 (for the tray editions).
Intel has this week revealed the discontinuance schedule for a lot of its older, 32 nm processors, including the Celeron G440 and the Core i5-2310, i5-2320, i5-2400, i5-2400S, i5-2405S, i5-2500, i5-2500K, i5-2500S, i5-2500T, i7-2600, i7-2600K, i7-2600S and i7-2700K. Interestingly enough, there's also a 22 nm chip on the black list, the 3.1 GHz Core i5-3450 which was released just last quarter.
