We learned about some awkward Nehalem specs yesterday, but that didn’t slow down Intel’s Core i7 promotion campaign. Today, Intel was kind enough to inform us about the upcoming Core i7 prices.

Fuddzila informs that we should be seeing three Core i7 CPUs at launch time, currently expected to be in early November. Each of the three Bloomfield CPUs practically corresponds to one of the three usual market sectors (high-end, mid range and entry level).

The high-end model and the most expensive of the three is a Core i7 clocked at 3.2GHz and QPI at 6.4. The actual model denomination wasn’t mentioned, but we know it’ll cost around $999. This is the first Extreme Edition Core i7 to be released.

The mid range CPU is clocked at 2.93 GHz and has QPI at 4.8 and 8MB cache. Again, there’s no official name and will be available for $562 wholesale price. That means it’ll be only slightly more expensive than the current gen Q9650 Core 2 Quad at 3.0GHz selling for $530.

The cheapest Bloomfield generation CPU announced by Intel works at 2.66GHz and has the same QPI at 4.8 and 8MB cache. It is expected to retail for $284, and I’m sure it will be the most appealing of the three, since the performance gaps between them usually doesn’t support the price difference theory.
