Despite that most motherboard makers are currently pushing Intel P45 motherboards, second-tier motherboard maker ASRock has launched 7-8 P43 chipset models for different markets, according to sources in the channel.
Due to the fact most motherboard makers are still carrying P35 chipset inventories, these makers do not wish to push P43-based motherboards in order to prevent [...]
Thirty years ago, Intel released the 8086 processor, introducing the x86 architecture that underlies every PC–Windows, Mac, or Linux–produced today.
Benj Edwards, PC World
The release of Intel’s 8086 microprocessor in 1978 was a watershed moment for personal computing. The DNA of that chip is likely at the center of whatever computer–Windows, Mac, or Linux–you’re using to [...]
This is an update to the previous version of Intel DQ965Co Board. We would recommend you to update it only if you any major problem and this update is likely to solve that problem. Incorrect method of updating BIOS can completely damage your computer and make it unrecoverable so proceed with caution. Use a [...]
Two years ago in Taiwan at Computex 2006 Gary Key and I stayed up all night benchmarking the Core 2 Extreme X6800, the first Core micro-architecture (Conroe core) CPU we had laid our hands on. While Intel retroactively applied its tick-tock model to previous CPU generations, it was the Core micro-architecture and the Core 2 [...]
Yesterday, at a meeting with some journalists, Intel stated that CPUs realize video encoding, as that is a task
designed for them and that the future would not bring any changes. According to Intel representatives, the CPU is used by DivX for dynamical adjustments of details across scenes. The processor is the only part that can [...]
..doesn’t offer warranty for overclocked CPUs
One of the main features of the recently released Intel 4 series chip set is that it will allow its users to better overclock their systems. Apparently, Intel will now give its users the necessary tools that will enable them to improve their system’s overall performance, by tweaking and overclocking [...]
Nvidia jumped into the market for mobile Internet devices (MIDs) on Monday with the introduction of a processor family based on the Arm processor core.
Tegra will primarily compete against Intel, which released a chip platform called Centrino Atom in April. Atom is designed for MIDs, a general name for portable computers that can be used [...]
Intel’s upcoming G45 and G43 IGP chipsets are expected to see shortages in the third quarter due to a recent switch in Intel’s production allocation, according to sources at motherboards makers. Intel 4 series IGP chipsets for desktops and notebooks are expected to be in short supply due to the discovery of a defect (now [...]
San Francisco (CA) - Intel is currently preparing the launch of its final Core-architecture processor design, the six-core server CPU Dunnington. Sources indicate that Intel was able to create product versions for all major power envelope levels in this segment, including a low-power 65 watt chip: Six cores and 65 watts sounds like a winner [...]
Intel puts more pressure on AMD with price cuts and new parts
Two things that drive the CPU world are price and performance. Depending on the needs of the consumer one or the other of these two factors is the main driver behind what processor is purchased. For many AMD CPUs the only place they compete [...]
