Intel says Sandy Bridge is a revenue risk
MANUFACTURING SANDY BRIDGE could see process technolgoy execution issues that further reduce an already depressed third quarter financial outcome, Intel has warned.
Intel expects to make over $1 billion less in revenue in the third quarter, according to a statement released today, and it warns of risk factors that could depress results further. In its 13 July report Intel predicted up to $12 billion revenue for the third quarter, or $11.6 billion plus or minus $400 milion.
Now it is saying that its revenues could be as low as $10.8 billion but might reach as much as $11.2 billion. It blamed consumer PC sales in "mature markets" for the $1 billion plus reduction in expected revenues. Intel will make its third quarter earnings report on 12 October.
Today's statement also says of the risk factors, "Intel is in the process of transitioning to its next generation of products on 32nm, and there could be execution issues ... including product defects and ... lower than anticipated manufacturing yields".
Sandy Bridge is considered its second generation of 32nm scale products, while products in its Core series are first generation. "The Core i5 and i3 are 32nm but the graphics part is at 45nm, Sandy Bridge is all 32nm and we are shipping for customer sampling later this year," Intel told The INQUIRER. µ

First thomas stewart von drashek Is Not HE. Sheeish.
Next heres latest , as stated how could multiple frequencies of gpu exist on one cpu thruput & now confiramation, NO extra graphic card allowed.
for Sandy Bridge based 32nm chips. Intel has just revealed to its special few that it plans to make Celeron CPUs based on this new upcoming core, but they will only come in Q3 2011. This will be a dual-core Celeron and we are we believe that the graphics part of the chip will still end up enabled. As far as we know there won't be any chipset with graphics so the only integrated non-discrete graphics choice is the GPU inside of the Sandy Bridge.

At first you hate him, then you respect him, and then finally you love him.
Vondra-shreck started to respond to it's own comments. It's getting higher and higher. One day it'll conquer the web. After all, a net needs a true spider to reside on...
I still want to see how sandy bridge comes out in the benchmarks but if AMD actually makes an integrated cpu/gpu setup that shows a significant improvement over a discreet graphics card for things like HTPC's and other non-gaming functions, Then intel might have something to worry about.
It also looks like vondrashek forgot to take his medication again.
I think Intel has made a mistake with the upcoming 'Sandy Bridge'. The move to a whole new socket again is something current computer users won't be happy with. Its not as if 'Sandy Bridge' is a whole new architecture, its basically a revised Core i5/i7 afterall!
The new CPU's should have been backwards compatible, at least for the lower end parts. The people who have current lower end CPU's could then afford a simple upgrade, now they won't bother since the cost will be prohibitive when you take in to account the new motherboard.
The other consideration is, if people have to change the motherboard they'll probably go for the cheaper performance vs cost option, which can only be a good thing for AMD!
I don't suscribe to favouring one company over another, I have had AMD in the past, currently on Intel but will go to AMD next year with Bulldozer. With graphics cards I'm not really a fan of Nvidia at the moment - I think they're a bit overrated, but if they bring out a truly good product at a decent price for a change I'd weigh up the ATI against Nvidia...
Anyways, I think the best option for Nvidia would have been to have a current gen compatible lower/mid end parts (socket 1156 comaptible instead of socket 1155), and save the newer sockets for the higher end parts where the architectural changes warrant having more bandwidth availability etc.
My next CPU... I reckon Bulldozer :)
There Secret Inside Sandy Bridge Only Engineering Team Knows, In Numbers Reveal that 880 from Intel line is compared to Sandy Bridge Gen 2 cpu 600. 600 Is clue. Intel, Motorola & Apple used 8XXX group as first start, after experimenting at home with 4004 for decade, that is Dod let Public home computing start.I too had studio laboratory with Boxes of 4004 & dual trace At:2120 4th Av So.MPLS
8008 or 8808 , now code number still hang on dual core 880, which Sandy Bridge Is Alikened to. However, Sandy Bridge number is 600 or next generation from 8808 to 6008 or 6800 series, then 386/486 & Pentium.On Sandy Bridge Model Number 2 600 Printed out by bios.Revision 2 model 600.
OK heres Catch to Key, Remember Vista that Never was LongHorn, Engineers musta laughed to bank on RED'R. Well, Worked terrible, Until that Key Was Found by DRASHEK, called 6200 gpu & whole mess had to be redesigned, literally from ground up. Mainboards, graphics, Core speed & slots, ALL As predicted from Original Vista/ NT6 White Paper, which Was First Published Here By Ultee', AKa Ulti. What theULTIMAT found was next step then, Numbers, ALL Over Rug. yet 6200 archetecture made Vista Work.
Todays Sandy Bridge IS MAJOR STEP UP FROM880 Intel, Not Major complete step which Bulldozer Might Be.
Intel
More Massive in some way,cpugpu, yet first Baby Step, while bulldozer is Finialized Dual Core, 3 core Module.
Heading to my New Friend, Capt. Multee's Domain, with 2=3,4=6.6=9,12=16 Core Modules, ifthat be design or?. Yet Sandy Bridge Is Complete New Fabrication, Crash & Burn, Perhaps, yet In Time Another Exciting CPU, this Time:850 Mhz/s GPU Link to Cpu. So ALL Hail 600 Series Sandy Brid .ge. C TM REgistured & Pat Pend, ALL2 Years of IT. Sandee' Scher Had NOTHING to Do With IT, Nor Sandees' Employer Illonis. Only Eye Set Vertical, Only i....
other facts 6200 to 6800. SB multiplyer up to 51. core bus stagerring 99 Mhz/s, thats why believe Long Road, NOT Horn Vista pread Horn was Oh,so Long. Long Road to Sandy Bridge before 22 nm Shrink, Need some High Speed Tests,please.
PS Daneile going to Greenland. Earl Coming to Washington,Dc midweek.
Super Technical MathMagic & coding.
Vector instructions arn't much compared to copletely new system archeticture of theBULL. Bulldozer Is Closer to Sand Box Controller, that once knows files execution code & got that into cache, only needing check file begining & end to check library & grab entire complete works from cache, saving All time that file would of had to enact each pass thru cpu..
Same as Any sandbox, outputs starts before input is complete, if known item,if it new file, just wacks file thru system, background is shifted All to cold module. So Whopper ,in Ultee' Theory. Since All Switches, just reset once file starts run into output. Ready for next file, which if know, branch predict & 2 way crosssbars start up from cache, while other cache is humming, hummmm.
compare toordinarily cpu,like Sandee' Bridge, as simply from in to out, first file wouldn't even be decoded into operations as much slower internally, while Bulldozer got handle on one & blast libraried result(cached) & about to blast second group of inst out, due to fast two way crossbar reset. FAST & Faster.
Crossbar, effecting reset, much, much faster.So many Tranees', So Fast to Flash clear entire mechanism for Next file. 1.3X faster.Each File.
Dozen greasee' fingers grabbing for Gold Ring. And ON.ON,ON & ON.
Mentioned Hrricanes daneile & ?Earl, Now Thrid is forming off West Africa in same hole as daneile & Earl. 70% chance TD Will Form in next 48 hrs. Very large cold front came thru north america on Monday & Daneile literally bounced off denser air. Earl still getting track aimed for US. Need F Name, Female for recent African #3. theFinquierer? NO. Well, wait In Stepped Suspense.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this the sort of boiler-plate CYA wording they have to put in all such financial reports?
Strictly speaking they also should've mentioned the risk of dino-killer-scale asteroid impact, and that the end of the world is scheduled for Q2'2012 according to certain mindsets.
