Whereas the last roadmap INTEL has just undergone a multi-leak, we learn several interesting information coming from this one. To make simpler and more readable, we will break up this news into several under-news on the various points approached:
- Arrived in advance of VT : Whereas one did not await it Longhorn, and thus at the end of 2006, INTEL announces that Vanderpool Technology (VT) will be finally available as of the second six-month period of this year in Pentium 4 6xx. INTEL also announces that VT will be also present on Itanium² in the same beach of time, but 2006 will have to be waited until to see arriving VT on Xeon and on Pentium Mr. For recall, VT is a technology of virtualisation which will allow a kind of VirtualPC hardware.
- Arrival of the EM64T on Celeron and P4 5xx: You read well, whereas AMD restricts its Sempron with the 32-bit only, INTEL, which always regards the EM64T as a simple "feature", thus will activate it on all the range Celeron LGA775 dice Q2' 05, it is has to say in a few months. INTEL also announces the arrival of Pentium 4 5xx with EM64T for Q2' 05! One will recognize CPUs EM64T in Processor number, which is incremented of 1. Celeron 325 with EM64T will thus become Celeron 326 and one Pentium 4 530 with EM64T, P4 531
- Advanced P4 8xx Dual-Core: Wishing absolutely to exceed AMD in the race with Dual the core, it is now in Q2' 05 (first half 2005) that Smithfield, first dual CPU core desktop, is announced. Launched at frequencies of 2.8, 3.0 and 3.2 GHz, it adopts the processor number, respectively, 820, 830 and 840. Smithfield will be equipped with two core P4, of 2*1MB of mask, the EM64T, the NX Bit and the EIST.
- Large fall of the target-price for Smithfield: Indeed, whereas this Dual CPU Core was awaited for almost $1000, Smithfield 820, 830 and 840 will be announced to... $241, $316 and $530! Very reasonable prices since Smithfield 820 will be less expensive than Pentium 4 640! Impressing.
- More information on Yonah: One knows some more about Yonah. Engraved in 65 Nm and equipped with two cores Pentium M, Yonah will be equipped with 2*1 Mo of mask and a FSB to 166 MHZ (667 QDR). It is currently envisaged in version 820, 830, 840, 850 and into two version low Voltage: 838 and 848.
- INTEL in race for the 65nm: INTEL also announces that the development of the processors "Cedar Mill", successor of Pentium 4, and "Presler", version Dual Core of the first, all two engraved in 65 Nm is already quite advanced and announces these CPUs for the whole at the beginning of 2006! INTEL also announces famous Yonah (of which samples circulate already), Pentium Mr. Dual Core and equipped with technology VT
In conclusion, one could say: FINALLY! Finally movement, finally of the action! Obviously, slow, but inescapable erosion in the current state of the things, of the shares of market of INTEL in favour of AMD made react the giant of Santa will clara which announces spectacular change in its roadmap. If INTEL seems here to have gotten rid perfectly here of the myth of the frequency, the very many innovations announced for the next months will have to be confirmed by convincing results. If that proves to be the case, AMD is likely to have seriously wire with retordre, and the juggling act marketing as for Turion is likely not to be enough...
INTEL今年的新計畫...Celeron和P4 5xx會全部開啟EM64T(型號為3x1與5x1)
