.13 Micron P!!!

When will the P!!!s based on the new .13 micron process be available. Will they use a new socket? Will they make the slower ones or only the 1+ Ghz?
 
Uh the P4`s are out take a look on pricewatch.com but there are no motherboards that support them yet??? LOL...

As for .13 micron P3`s that would be cool but I dont thing that will come to be either...
 
Intel has announced that it ALREADY completed its development of their .13 micron fab process. Intel has announced it will be ready to ship products based on this process about the middle of next year.

Do you think the PIII will even be popular then or the PIV? We'll have to see if they even bother to move the P3 to the .13 micron process - I think it's doubtful. Certainly the P4 will - notice they mention "multi-Ghz clock speeds" - that is NOT the P3.



Check out their press release here.
 
Well lookee here, looks like I answered my own question. Check out paragraph 2. http://www.sharkyextreme.com/hardware/roadmaps/intel_cpu-chipset_9-2000/3.shtml
Does anyone know if the socket will be different.
Once, I saw an Intel roadmap from Japan that was scary. If I remeber correctly, it said the new P!!! will use a new socket and then the P4 will use another and then the P4 .13 will use another, then the P4 with 128 on-die cache will use another, then the P4 with 256 cache will use another, then the P4 with 256 on-die cache will use another. This is where it stabilized. I could be wrong about this, I only saw it very briefly and some of it was in Japanese. Did anyone see this. I want to look at it again, but I can't find it. A lot of this could be wrong, I don't remember it very well, but there were like 5 sockets to come out in 2001. Does anyone remember where I could have seen this. I think it was an anandtech news article titled something like Update of Intel Roadmap. Please help me find this, I would hate to buy a .18 P!!! only to find the socket to be out of date. I remember it begining with something like Thanks to someone for sending us this intel update from Japan. It had a link to 2 other links, one in japanese and one in english. It was all a graphic diagram of theur CPUs.
 
Updated Roadmap here.

It's part of the fun buying something that may or may not be outmoded quickly. It looks like the 440BX chipset will finally be discontinued by Intel next year . . .

<<The Pentium III 1.13GHz' return has been pushed out all the way to Q2 2001. The Pentium 4 will take up the high-end where the 1.13GHz Pentium III would otherwise have resided. Tualatin, the .13 micron Pentium III, will come in Q3 2001 at 1.26GHz.>>

Who knows for sure? They has slocket adapters for the current Coppermine. We could be lucky or perhaps need new motherboards. But if you want Intel's highest end CPU solution, it will come in the .13 micron P4. Do not buy the current one - a new MB will definitely be needed when they change the P4 over.
