Intel will not be able to ship more than 500,000 Pentium D dual-core processors this year, as demand will not pick up until 2006, sources with motherboard makers in Taiwan said yesterday.

Intel on Thursday unveiled the Pentium D 840, 830 and 820 processors and the 945 Express chipset series for home PCs.

Third-quarter shipments of Pentium D series processors are only expected to reach 100,000 units, the sources said. By the end of the year, Intel will have shipped no more than 500,000 dual-core processors, the sources added.
