Intel Bloomfield may go faster than 3.2GHz in Q2 2009

Intel will release a 3.2GHz Bloomfield processor in Q4 2008 and FUD Zilla claims this chip will be the fastest one throughout Q1 2009. The site says Intel may release a faster Nehalem chip in Q2 2009 but only if necessary.

Bloomfield 3.2GHz will stay in extreme performance market and AMD has to launch some fearsomely fast Deneb parts to threaten the 3.2GHz Bloomfield. Intel knows it can go over 3.2GHz at that time but at this time we don’t know how far this CPU will overclock or what is the final clock destination of this quad-core / eight threads core.
