Intel's Core i7-2630QM chip has made the leap from the company's
roadmap onto its first spec sheet, courtesy of HP's dv7. We've come
across a provisional component list for an update to HP's gaming
laptop, which includes the 2GHz quad-core CPU as the star of its show.
Now, of course, neither HP nor Intel has said anything official on the
matter, but Laptoping has also been snooping around and found listings
at online retailers for laptops from Gateway and Lenovo also offering
the still unannounced part. It's not exactly a secret that Intel
intends to blow the bloody doors off CES 2011 with its Sandy Bridge
processor line, but it's reassuring to see vendors looking eager and
ready so far in advance of the launch date -- it should mean no
shortage of choice when Paul Otellini finally steps to the stage and
makes things officially official.
