Intel is planning to drop the price of i7 950 to replace i7 930, and this will happen on August 29

Also, i5 760 is going to replace i5 750, moreover intel planning to release i3 550 and 560 which have higher clock speed than the current i3 models

didn't the 930 just replace the 920? Come on intel, seriously.

Saw this....its in order to make way for the locked six core processors, or thats what i think anyhow.

Do you mean more i7s like the 980x
or some new Intel Series if yes then which socket would they be based on

I bet a new socket considering its their usual trend.
