Soon enough there will be a new mainstream mobile CPU up for selection when buying certain laptops.
And by certain laptops we mean the Clevo W258ELQ, HP's ProBook 4540s and Lenovo's G480. The chip in question is called Pentium B980 and has two Sandy Bridge Cores. That's right, this isn't a 22nm Ivy Bridge unit. Anyway, the dual-core has 2 MB of L3 cache, a clock speed of 2.4 GHz and a memory controller for DDR3-1333 MHz.
Furthermore, it will support basic technologies and SIMD extensions up to SSE4, but there will be no Hyper-Threading or Virtualization. Finally, Intel's chip will run on 35W of power and will be possible to replace by Celeron and Core series processors if notebook prospective buyers so choose.
