On auto-overclocking, Core i7 860 hits 3.46GHz and Core i7 870 hits 3.6GHz. These quad-core processors will be priced at Core i7 860 for $284 (Rs. 13, 600 approx.) and Core i7 870 for $562 (Rs. 26,900 approx.). Both processors are based on Nehalem microarchitecture 'Bloomfield' Core i7 800 series processors and support Hyper Threading with the new Socket LGA 1156.
