Intel has started to ship out the newly fixed Sandy Bridge processors. Computer manufactures have already received the new processors, which means that the new motherboards and,computers models should start shipping soon.
Intel stopped shipments on all Sandy Bridge chipsets earlier this year, because of a defect found in the chip. The move caused major delays in the industry. Officially Intel resumed shipping on Feb 14th without releasing any official comments about when retail stores can expect the processor to arrive.
Intel seems to be stepping back into the game and can hopefully put the issue in its past. However, I do think that Intel could have talked more openly about the Sandy Bridge issue instead of keeping the door closed on the topic.
