Intel released cheap processors

Tuesday, September 20th, 2011

Intel Sandy BridgeIntel will release third quarter new budget line of processors Celeron and Pentium. Models Celeron G530T and Pentium G630T included in the updated list of processors Sandy Bridge, supported by the motherboard Biostar.
The both chips feature low power consumption (35 watts TDP). But their opportunities are also limited by features such as Turbo Boost and Hyper-Threading not provided. Pentium G630T model is more productive than the two new processors. The chip includes two cores operating at a clock frequency 2,3 GHz, cache volume in the third level and 3 MB integrated graphics core (GPU). Celeron G530T is also dual core, but works on 2,0 GHz clock and a 3 MB cache on the third level. Prices of the new processors are not yet announced.

Celeron Dual Core E1400

Celeron Dual Core E1400For a short time the market appears a very interesting processor – Intel Dual Core Celeron E1400. The interesting thing in it, that is a real dual-core Conroe processor running on a strong rate of 2.00GHz. Intel still uses the old names and Pentium Celeron, which we believe have been inappropriate for the segmentation of their processors. Even if given the legacy of Pentium processors and Celeron, it is this legacy of the powerful but cumbersome Pentium 4 (Willamette, Northwood, Prescott) and their analogues with truncated Celeron cache and system bus. Heritage can only be of Pentium M (Banias and Dothan), processors that were developed in Israel and who saved Intel from breathing on their neck AMD. Perhaps few people know that the Pentium M is a direct successor to the Pentium III Tualatin, Pentium M with a few amendments to be transformed into Yonah (Core Duo, Core Solo) – ie the current dual-core processors. Banias, Dothan and Yonah are words of Jewish origin, which clearly shows the origin and the relationship between processors.
There should be a clear difference between a Pentium architecture NetBurst (Pentium 4, Pentium D and derived XEON processors and Celeron) and the Pentium, resulting from the Intel P6 (Pentium Pro, Pentium III Tualatin, later and modern Pentium M Core Duo, Solo, 2 Duo, Quad). NetBurst was branded by Intel as inefficient and expensive and therefore was removed from production. After these historical notes, let us focus on this overview of the Intel Dual Core Celeron E1400. The core processor is Conroe – 512, ie the cache of the processor is reduced to 512KV (typical for Celeron).

Intel and HP will make new generations of the processor Itanium

Thursday, February 9th, 2012

ItaniumItanium server processor is not dead and have a future, it is clear from the statement of representatives of Intel and HP. Both companies denied a recent allegation of Oracle for the death of Itanium.
Intel promised to release at least two generations of its server processor. The company claims that its specialists continue to work on developing the chip.
In confirmation of this from Intel revealed several code names and details for the future processor Itanium. In particular, it comes to chips Poulson, who have 8 cores and will produce 32-nanometer process.
Like the future chips Sandy Bridge-EP and Westmere-EX, CPU Poulson has circular design in which the nuclei are placed outside of the silicon crystal in the center is a cache.
Oracle, in turn, attacked the market for HP servers. The both companies had exclusive partnership since 2008 in the servers for storage. Later, however, Oracle has acquired Sun and terminate the exclusive contract with HP, and began to launch Sparc systems and argues that they are better than HP machines.
