Leaked Intel roadmap shows 3 Sandy Bridge E processors in fourth quarter

We already know that Intel’s next big thing, the Sandy Bridge E series processors will be coming in the fourth quarter this year with quad- and six-core processors. But now a leaked roadmap is showing the specs of the processors that we’re highly anticipating.
According to the slide, we’ll be seeing a 3.6GHz clock and 10MB of cache, but it is not entirely unlocked, unlike the six-cores, which might limit overclocking to some extent. The two six-cores will end up with 3.3GHz and 3.2GHz clocks, as well as 15MB and 12MB of cache respectively. Both will be fully unlocked, just like how the i7-2600K processors are.
These processors will most probably be running on X79 chipsets and will be utilizing 32nm production process. 22nm production process will only come in 2012 in the form of Ivy Bridge.
