DJ aka GDR DJ Posted November 27, 2011 Posted November 27, 2011 Blast From The Past Intel's 45nm CPUs are so 2010 and right now we can barely remember when 65nm chips were a big hit for Intel in 2007. Guess what, Intel is quietly shipping at least a dozen chips including LGA 775 Celeron 430, a chip dating back to Q2 2007. We were quite surprised to see that in the dawn of manufacturing and Ivy Bridge 22nm, Intel quietly ships many legacy and transitional products for socket 775. After morphed into this socket LGA 1156, and most recently to LGA1155, we sort of expected that the time of LGA 775 is over. Core 2 Duo E7600 and E7500 processors will stop shipping with this quarter, Q4 2011 but, Pentium E6800, E6700, E5800 as well as wants and Celeron E3500 E3400 continue shipping until at least Q3 2012th Celeron 430, will in all its single-core 65nm glory thus continue to ship at least until Q3 2012th We do not need to point out that LGA1156 socket so will survive even beyond this point and the fact that Sandy Bridge, the current generation of 32nm, 22nm Ivy Bridge and next generation chips will use the newer socket LGA1155, Which does not help that much.
