Intel Hexa Core CPU Core i7 Unveiled: Mac Pro Next Tuesday!?

After talking about those new hexa-core CPU over the last five months, they are finally unveiled as the NDA ended today. We are still waiting for the Xeon version of this hexa-core series to find its way in the future model of Mac Pro that should now be released soon. Several websites offer first benchmarking of those new CPU, including the flagship Core i7-980X, and as expected this high-end model is a real performer while remaining relatively sober on the energy consumption point of view. According to ZDNet the new Mac Pro to feature 6 to 12 physical cores should be available next Tuesday.
