Intel to Launch Four Arrandale CPUs for Notebooks by January

Intel is reportedly set to launch four Arrandale CPUs for mainstream notebooks in January 2010, according to DigiTimes.

Intel plans to launch four 32nm dual-core Arrandale CPUs (Calpella platform), the Core i5-520M, Core i5-430M, Core i3-350M and Core i3-330M, in the first half of January 2010 for the mainstream notebook segment, according to sources from notebook players.

The Intel Core i5-430M runs at 2.26GHz and reaches 2.53GHz with Intel's Trubo Boost technology. The Intel Core i3-350M and i3-330M do not support Turbo Boost technology and run at 2.26GHz and 2.13GHz respectfully.


These chips should come in low-voltage variants that will make them usable for the MacBook Pros as well as the MacBook Air.
