We show that whenever delta > 0 and constants lambda(i) satisfy some necessary conditions. there are infinitely many prime triples p(1) p(2), p(3) sat satisfying the inequality |lambda(0) + lambda(1)p(1) + lambda(2)p(2) + lambda(3)p(3)| < (maxp(j))(-2/9+delta). The proof uses Davenport-Heilbronn adaption of the circle method together with a vector sieve method.
