Intel to Launch Energy Efficient Core 2 Quads on January 18th

A

Looks like Intel is planning to launch 65w TDP energy-saving quad cores under the Core 2 Quad Qxxxxs series:

I can see this being particularly useful for large server racks of course.

Its good buddy

But costly,INTEL making tuning to old processors and selling them for higher price.

every time intel doing the same thing

yaeh. That's the reason for their deep pockets. ANyway, evolution is the way the world develops.

Good news

I thought evolution worked like we will eventually grow wings and fly instead of that metallic prop

lol

Just for the reference: Server chips run much much cooler. An 8-Core 32-Thread Sun OpenSPARC T2 Processor consumes only 72watt at 1.4GHz.

Anyway, ontopic: This must be to combat the AMD 9x50e CPUs I guess...

Tensin na lo.. Humare purkhe kabhi udne ki soch bhi nahi sakte the, v r travlling by airplane. Medical science ne clone to paida kar hi diye hai, aapki wish bhi zaroor poori hogi.

Thats because they are asynchronous processors. They are made in such a way that only the portion required will be powered.

And intel does nothing to counter this 2006 CPU ?

^ Why should it anyway?

because eventually comp industry needs to develop ,thats why ....am i right :-/

-Core 32-Thread Sun OpenSPARC T2 Processor

This name is news to me itself.

Not everything is for development, if things were done solely for development, cars would have been so cheap that throwing them away would prove cheaper than refueling it!

Intel wont work solely for development day and night. Its because it has competition and market.. And tons of other parameters come in.

Unless the openSPARC/ UltraSPARC processors are a threat to Intel; why would intel do anything?
If Intel hasnt done anything; its because it does NOT need to do anything.

Its based on Sun SPARC 64-bit architecture. Originally called UltraSPARC T2, it was opensourced at the end of 2007. Costs 771$ from most vendors like Sun and Fujitsu.

USE GOOGLE.

UltraSPARC T2 has been renamed to OpenSPARC? That's news to me.

not renamed. its been opensourced under the name OpenSPARC.

Now that's rocking procc I must say.
