'60W' six core processors! Compute centres are going to be happy.

Pretty much my exact thoughts - definitely want me some of that I'll need to check on ark, but I assume that's going to turbo boost up to around 3GHz for single-core loads, too... sounds like a brilliant piece of engineering.

Where do I gets me one?


EDIT: rather disappointingly, the embedded L5638 only turbos from 2GHz - 2.4GHz. The L5640 does better though: from 2.26GHz - 2.8GHz, @ 60W, in LGA1366 package. So, now all I need is $996...
