The Core 2 Duo E8500 processor for medium-high and that these lines are known further.
Earlier this year, Big Blue intends to begin to migrate to the 45nm technology. And even brighter in technology, no doubt, will become mainstream until sometime in 2009 in the same year (2009) see the light products based on Nehalem for this segment.
As a parenthesis, it is known that Nehalem will be published this year, but only the series of ultra high performance and ultra high cost known as Extreme Edition and on top of this new process will require a new socket and new motherboard obviously due to the memory controller directly CPU, but not in the chipset.
Returning to the star of today, the Core2Duo E8500 brings all the improvements inherent in the core Penryn. Penryn core is composed of two families, the first dual-core Wolfdale and is known as the introduction of four-core Yorkfield second it was not more than two Wolfdale in a single establishment.
The Intel Tic-Tac. Intel claims that its core technology and lasted two years before a new leap in its architecture. Also known as Tock. The manufacturing processes and technologies included in their products once the Tock seems, Intel is committed in the first and second year to improve every step of improvement in manufacturing processes, as well as the natural evolution, which manages Intel TICK.
He said the family August 2 Duo processor numbers is a TICK but is of the opinion that it is much more than that is just reducing the consumption of the manufacturing process and lower heat generation.
It also increased the cache for 50% of their relatives in Conroe ie 4mb to 6mb. Remains the same size as the addition to these instructions and new materials for the production that allows a lower power loss in the communication among its millions of transistors.
None of this is new if you look at Core 2 Duo E8400 (access to this review here) which is also a Wolfdale, but with a slightly lower multiplier.
