Sandy Bridge Infomation Released

Several sites have scooped up Sandy Bridge content and with the pending release we're likely to see more.  For those of you that may be out of the loop Sandy Bridge is the code name for the next generation of Intel LGA 1156 processors designed to upgrade the Lynnfield line.

Sandy Bridge is the next major architecture from Intel. What Intel likes to call a tock. The first tock was Conroe, then Nehalem and now SB. In between were the ticks - Penryn, Westmere and after SB we'll have Ivy Bridge, a 22nm shrink of Sandy.

Anandtech has some great info on Sandy Bridge so be sure to give it a read.

Cannot promise we'll have a SandyBridge chip on launch day, but as we all know the future is not set and anything can happen
