RESELLERS have got their paws on Intel's new Penryn-class processors.

According to x86 Watch there have been confirmed sightings of the quad-core Xeon X5460 running at 3.16GHz with 12MB of L2 cache and a 1333MHz front-side bus which is being flogged for $1,382.

There is also the quad-core Xeon E5450, 3.0 GHz/12M/1333-MHz FSB for $1,016 and the Xeon E5440, 2.83 GHz/12M/1333-MHz FSB for $850- and the quad-core Xeon E5405, 2.0 GHz/12M/1333-MHz FSB for $255.

The processors are supposed to be out on general release by Monday. Chipzilla plans to follow up with 15 new 45nm processors by the end of the year and another 20 in the first quarter of 2008. That is, of course, if it sticks to its road map.

The reseller links can be found here, here, here and here. µ

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
