Intel has planned to launch a new Quad-core CPU named Q8400 somewhere around this month.

The Q8400 is based on the 45 nanometer fabrication technology and is codenamed Yorkfield.
It runs at a speed of 2.66 GigaHertz and shares the same specs as the Q9400 processor except for the cache size of 4 MegaBytes which is 2 MegaBytes lesser than the Q9400 chip.
