Holy Processors Batman! Intel Unveils New Roadmap with 16 New Chips
Intel, who is hell bent on creating energy saving chips, has unveiled 16 new chips that range from an 8-core behemoth to a more power efficient mobile chipset.
All of these new chips include the company’s new transistor formula and 45nm manufacturing process that boost a PC’s speed, reduces power requirements, saves on battery life, helps the environment and comes in smaller packages for more fashionable and compact computer designs. With the introduction of the new processors, Intel will be offering a total of 32 desktop, laptop and server processors based on these industry-leading innovations.
Seems like 2008 is going to be the year of the laptop. I can think of an unnammed fruit company that may have a few upgraded machines in the wings next week with these new chips.
Intel have one of their new 45nm range out already but extremely expensive, at ~€900 or $900 in the US. But its a sweep price to pay for 12GHz of power in a single chip.
