Intel Has Confirmed Delay Of Ivy Bridge Mobile Processors To ODMs
Intel has now confirmed a rumor we previously reported on, their Ivy Bridge mobile processors will see a delay. The next generation CPUs will see an eight to ten week delay, pushing back sales from April to June for notebooks and pre-built desktops. The reasons for the delay have changed, with Executive Vice-President of Intel and Chairman of Intel China Sean Maloney saying the change wasn’t because of a need for inventory adjustments but instead the 22nm manufacturing process itself.
In his first interview to discuss Intels business in China, Mr Maloney told the Financial Times that the start of sales of machines equipped with Ivy Bridge the 22nm processor set to succeed Sandy Bridge in notebooks this year had been pushed back from April. I think maybe its June now, he said.
