Intel officially revealed its latest, greatest chip for desktops today, the Intel Core i7.  The good people over at Engadget have quite a good coverage lineup, I suggest heading over there and checking out the details.  The best part?  “Even the “low end” Core i7 920 [is] able to defeat the higher clock speed Core 2 Quad Q9650 “over and over” according to TechSpot, a feat due in large part to the CPU’s on-die memory controller and Intel’s new QPI technology.” [engadget]
