Intel’s cool new chip
p2pnet.net News:- Intel wants to create some really cool chips.
Literally.
‘Montecito’ will be the first 64-bit Intel chip to use two processing cores on a single silicon die to improve performance, at the same time keeping it cooler, says InformationWeek.
It’s scheduled for release in the fourth quarter.
Details will be in a paper Intel is due to present at the International Solid-State Circuits Conference this week in San Francisco and, “It will also describe power-saving technology called demand-based switching that works with Windows to reduce energy consumption when a server isn’t stressed,” says InformationWeek.
