This is the new quad-core Kentsfield chip from Intel. It shows as 2(4), but should be 1(4).

TIA

Well, actually, if you want to get down to specifics, it's actually two cpu's slapped together under a single heat spreader.

But I'll change it.

I thought the format was "sockets(cores)"? That would make these 1(4), regardless of how they are grouped on the chip, right?

I was just nagging about the fact how they build that thing, not a nice engineering axample.

I already changed it to 1(4).

Thanks! I hear the next gen 4-core from intel will be a real 4-core (not 2x2core on a chip). I think it is due out sometime in 2007.
