Before entering on the details about the architectural features present on the Nehalem CPUs, let’s make a summary of the base elements that are common to the many different versions: server, desktop and notebook. It’s worth noticing how the new architecture engineering process used by Intel aims at obtaining CPUs that can be used in [...]

Intel Corporation is presenting a paper at the SIGGRAPH 2008 industry conference in Los Angeles on Aug. 12 that describes features and capabilities of its first-ever forthcoming “many-core” blueprint or architecture codenamed “Larrabee.”

Details unveiled in the SIGGRAPH paper include a new approach to the software rendering 3-D pipeline, a many-core (many processor engines in a [...]

Intel Released Intel® X18-M and X25-M Mainstream SATA Solid-State Drives (SSDs) based on multi-level cell (MLC) NAND flash technology for laptop and desktop computers. The X18-M is a 1.8-inch drive and the X25-M a 2.5-inch drive. SSD increases overall system performance and faster booting. Since SSDs are like flash drive it has got no moving [...]
