I expect more SKUs.

iF
iD
iB
i9
i7
i5
i3
i1
Pentium Platinum w/ mixed core assortment.
Pentium Gold w/ mixed core assortment.
Pentium Silver and Bronze, etc.
Celeron maybe add levels like some Iron, Steel, Titanium, Carbon
Atom (64-bit optimized)
Quark (32-bit optimized)
Preon (16-bit optimized)
Then, there is the Quantum lineup;
q7
q5
q3
q1

etc. So many SKUs, it is a maze. Then, there are suffixes for L4, Near HBM, Discrete GPU in/on Package, etc.
Your material please ! WTB

Somehow the "nearly extinct" i3 branding, the "up to" 100% HT yield and the "artificial partridge" managed to create a rather unique thread about a dystopian future we can only imagine.

This forum is clearly showing CPU launch withdrawal symptoms. Even the unexpected WTB is clear proof of that :)

Partridges need lots of ST performance for flight sims. I hope those avian i3s clock really high. With lots of extra L3 thrown in, because, you know Why should a 9900k have more L3 than anything else outside of HEDT?

What does WTB mean?
