Intel’s 32nm Clarkdale CPUs moved up to Q4, a full year ahead of AMD?

It’s just a rumor, but DigiTimes has pretty decent sources within Taiwan’s motherboard industry. So what was a Q1 2010 mass production launch of Clarkdale CPUs is now rumored to be coming in Q4, notable as the first Intel CPU to use its new 32nm process technology while the integrated memory controller and graphics core are built on a 45nm process. that jibes with what DailyTECH and others were reporting back in Feburary. DigiTimes adds that Intel expects Clarkdale CPUs to history for 10% of its total desktop CPU shipments in Q4 rising to 20% in Q1 2010. That means we should see the chips well before the holiday shopping season (near the October 22nd launch of Windows 7 makes sense) whether true. As for AMD, well, last we heard they’re still looking to “ramp up” production in the middle of 2010 with mass production capabilities arriving around Q4. Yeah, we know.
