2.8 mhz Sossaman

[DVK916]

Intel released the 2.8 ghz dual core sossaman a few days ago and nothing is said about it. Isn't it suppose to one of the fast chips released. It is same core as the duo core, but with 800 mhz FSB.

Easy, because it isn't Sossaman, it is Paxville (dual core Xeon, Smithfield derivative) crap:

PetNorth is right,

No P6 chip has been officially clocked past 2.26GHz, and the Core Duos are looking more around 2.0GHz neighbourhood. 2.8GHz is probably either referring to Paxville, or Woodcrest that is coming in Q4-06.
