And the surprise is that the consumer version of Larrabee has been canceled.

Intel condemns tardy Larrabee to dev purgatory

Larrabee means nothing until we see some direct comparison benchmarks against Nvidia and AMD/ATI products.

Larrabee is going to be a pile of crap, much like it's current IGP, but it'll get slight market penetration because Intel will shove it down OEM throats with checklist-features and bundle deals.

It (probably means)that Intel is going to offer packages with their CPU and motherboards, taking away the lucrative business sector.

They are already making exercises (with the small consumer) with the i5 (1156 socket) that supports only one X16 line, continuing with the 32nm with the integrated GPU and will try to break the sound barrier with the Sandy Bridge.

Whats this mean when both ATI and nVidia come in at 28nm and HKMG on their next iterations early 2011?

Intel says "hay thar, look, we'll have something soon, don't buy now!".

Talk about falling for it.

If LRB has been taken apart to sort it out since this new guy is in, it will have taken a while (six+ months) to fix the problems. Then the new, fixed design, will tape out. Then it'll be a year. Late 2010 is still far more likely.

So Intel will have some early HPC-only offerings earlier, cherry picked from early low-production wafers? Hmm.

Maybe larrabee becomes the terminator chip O_O
Lower expectation by: Anonymous on 11/25/2009
"Firstly, the company was bullish and claimed that they'll demolish AMD and nVidia... Few quarters passed... Intel's representatives stated that the part will surprise the competition with performance..."

Just keep lowering the expectation. What's next? Is Larrabee going to compete at all with Radeon and GeForce? Or is it just going to fill a niche in the HPC market?

Show me some meaningful performance numbers/targets please!

" the part will surprise the competition with performance"

the customers are in, for a lot of surprises lately.
