Remember Intel's budget-friendlier Core i3 (http://www.engadget.com/tag/corei3) line that we've been talking about since June? Despite recent leaks (http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/hp-leaks-forthcoming-radeon-gpus-core-i3-cpus-hulu-and-netflix/) the company still hasn't made it officially official, but it's now unofficially officially thanks to a pre-order at a Canadian retailer. If you're getting a little déjà vu right now don't worry, it isn't a glitch in the matrix; this is exactly the same scenario (http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/06/intel-still-wont-talk-core-i5-details-but-you-can-order-one-an/) that played out with the Core i5 back in August, about a month before that proc was finally given its coming out party (http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/08/intels-lynnfield-processors-now-officially-official-benchmarke/). In other words, expect this 32nm chip -- with its 2.93GHz speed, 512KB of L2 cache, 4MB of L3, and $157 CAD asking price (a mere $10 lower in American) -- to be given the full press release rigmarole sometime around the new year.Intel's Core i3 530 processor up for order, still unconfirmed by Intel (http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/09/intels-core-i3-530-processor-up-for-order-still-unconfirmed-by/) originally appeared on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com) on Wed, 09 Dec 2009 08:31:00 EST.
